Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Ground Lease with the United States Department of Interior
In connection with the acquisition of the Argonaut Hotel (the “Hotel”) described in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Acquisition”), a subsidiary of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (the “Company”) assumed from Maritime Hotel Associates, L.P. (“Maritime Hotel Associates”), an unaffiliated third party, the noncancelable ground lease for the building property and land (as amended, the “Lease”) with the United States Department of the Interior acting by and through the Regional Director, Pacific West Region, an agency of the United States of America. Pursuant to the Lease, which expires on December 31, 2059, the Company is required to pay the greater of an annual base rent of $1.2 million (as adjusted for consumer price index (“CPI”) increases) or a percentage of Rooms Department Revenues (as defined in the Lease, and as adjusted for CPI increases) and Food and Beverage and All Other Department Revenues (as defined in the Lease). The percentage of Rooms Department Revenues ranges from 8% to 12% in the initial years to 12% to 14% in the later years of the Lease. The percentage of Food and Beverage and All Other Department Revenues is 4% for the life of the Lease. A copy of the Lease, amendments seven, ten and eleven to the Lease and the Assignment and Assumption of Lease, pursuant to which the Lease was assumed from Maritime Hotel Associates, are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.
Note Payable Obligation and Accompanying Agreements
Also in connection with the Acquisition, a subsidiary of the Company assumed from Maritime Hotel Associates, an unaffiliated third party, a note payable obligation collateralized by the Hotel (the “Promissory Note”). Cash from the Hotel’s operations account may be used to fund debt service. The outstanding principal balance on the Promissory Note is $42.0 million. The Promissory Note has a fixed interest rate of 5.67% per annum and requires monthly interest-only payments through March 11, 2012, the maturity date. A copy of the Promissory Note and the Assumption Agreement, pursuant to which the Promissory Note was assigned from Maritime Hotel Associates, are filed as Exhibits 10.6 and 10.7, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein. As a condition to the loan assumption, the Company’s operating partnership was required to execute a guaranty, pursuant to which it agrees to indemnify the lender for losses arising out of, among other things, (a) the borrower’s failure to comply with certain “special-purpose entity” provisions in the Deed of Trust, (b) the borrower’s consent to any amendment or termination of the Lease or certain other operating leases, (c) the borrower’s failure to cause all rent payments to be deposited into the applicable rent account or, after an event of default, into a central account or (d) the lender’s inability to exercise its remedies under the loan documents during any period when any event of default has occurred and is continuing under the loan documents.
In addition to, and in conjunction with, the Promissory Note, a subsidiary of the Company assumed, pursuant to the Assumption Agreement, a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Fixture Filing (the “Deed of Trust”), dated as of February 23, 2007, pursuant to which the Promissory Note was secured, and all of the other loan documents. A copy of the Deed of Trust is filed as Exhibit 10.8 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On February 16, 2011, a subsidiary of the Company completed its acquisition of the 252-room Argonaut Hotel for $84.0 million from Maritime Hotel Associates, L.P., an unaffiliated third party. The Hotel will continue to be managed by Kimpton Hotel & Restaurant Group, LLC (“Kimpton”), the current manager of the Hotel, pursuant to a management agreement between the Company’s taxable real estate investment trust subsidiary and Kimpton. The management agreement matures on August 31, 2033 and provides for base management fees and incentive management fees within the ranges described in the Company’s final prospectus for its public equity offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) on July 23, 2010. The management agreement is terminable upon sale with the payment of a termination fee. In addition, the agreement contains other terms and provisions customarily found in hotel management agreements. The transaction was funded with $42.0 million of available cash and the assumption of the $42.0 million mortgage more fully described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

  5.5.1.   Adjustments to Base Rental
 
      The Base Rental shall be subject to adjustment according to Sections 5.5.1.1 and 5.5.1.2 of this Lease. In no case shall the Base Rental, as a result of an adjustment be less than the Base Rental in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
  5.5.1.1.   Adjustment Schedule
 
      CPI adjustments to the Base Rental shall be made every five (5) years during the Term with the first such adjustment to be made effective on the first day following the fifth anniversary of the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy, whichever occurs first.

  5.5.1.2.3.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase in Base Rental shall not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the initial annual Base Rental.
  5.5.2.   Upon the determination of the new Base Rental, pursuant to CPI adjustments as set forth in this Lease, Lessor shall notify Lessee of such new Base Rental and such notification shall constitute an amendment to this Lease, as if such amendment were duly executed by the Parties.

  5.6.1.1.   For the purposes of calculating Percentage Rental, Gross Receipts will be allocated into two categories in a manner consistent with the Uniform System.

      Revenues between $13,563,200 and $17,360,875 (in 2000 dollars), plus (iv) twelve percent (12%) of Rooms Department Revenues over $17,360,875 (in 2000 dollars), minus (b) the amount of Base Rental payable by Lessee in any such Lease Year.
 
  5.6.1.4.   Percentage Rental for Lease Years 39 to 48 is calculated as follows: (a) the sum of (i) a base amount equal to ten percent (10%) of Rooms Department Revenues up to $17,360,875 (in 2000 dollars), plus (ii) four percent (4%) of Food and Beverage and All Other Department Revenues, plus (iii) twelve percent (12%) of Rooms Department Revenues over $17,360,875 (in 2000 dollars), minus (b) the amount of Base Rental payable by Lessee in any such Lease Year.
  5.6.1.5.   Percentage Rental for Lease Years 49 through the end of the Term is calculated as follows: (a) the sum of (i) a base amount equal to twelve percent (12%) of Rooms Department Revenues up to $17,360,875 (in 2000 dollars), plus (ii) four percent (4%) of Food and Beverage and All Other Department Revenues, plus (iii) fourteen percent (14%) of Rooms Department Revenues in excess of $17,360,875 (in 2000 dollars), minus (b) the amount of Base Rental payable by Lessee in any such Lease Year.
  5.6.1.6.   The Rooms Department Revenues under Sections 5.6.1.2 through 5.6.1.5 of this Lease will be indexed to the CPI each year on the anniversary of the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy, whichever occurs first, and in the manner described in Sections 5.5.1.1 and 5.5.1.2 of this Lease.
  5.6.2.   Although the Percentage Rental due shall be reconciled by calculation on a yearly basis, the Percentage Rental shall

**** PACIFIC WEST REGION — NATIONAL PARK SERVICE ****

 


 

Haslett Warehouse
HL-SAF001-99
PAGE 32
      be payable in four (4) quarterly installments during each Lease Year, in arrears, due on the tenth (10th) day of April, July, October, and January, without offset or deduction except as provided for in Section 33.7 below, and with the first payment due on the tenth (10th) day of the first applicable quarter following the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy, whichever occurs first. Percentage Rental shall be calculated for quarterly payment based on the cumulative annual Gross Receipts for the applicable Lease Year. The total of such quarterly payments shall be adjusted at the end of each Lease Year as provided in Section 5.6.4 of this Lease.
  5.6.3.   Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a statement of Gross Receipts for each month of that calendar quarter. Each quarterly statement shall be signed and certified to be correct by Lessee or its authorized representative.
  5.6.4.   At the end of each Lease Year, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor, in accordance with Section 7.2 of this Lease, the Annual Report, which report shall contain a certified report of Gross Receipts for such Lease Year. Promptly after Lessee’s submission of such Annual Report, the Parties shall make any adjustment necessitated by any deficiencies or overpayment in the monthly payments. If Lessee has not paid Lessor a sufficient Percentage Rental for the Lease Year, then Lessee shall pay any deficiency at the time of submittal of the Annual Report. If Lessee’s payments for the preceding Lease Year exceed the amount actually due to Lessor, the amount of the overpayment shall be credited to the next installment of Percentage Rental or other amounts next due under this Lease.
  5.7.   Late Charges
 
      Any unpaid Annual Rental or other amounts due from Lessee to Lessor shall bear interest from the date ten (10) days after the date due until paid at the Interest Rate. In addition, Lessee recognizes that late payment of any portion of the Annual Rental will result in administrative expense to Lessor, the extent of which expense is difficult and economically impracticable to ascertain. Lessee therefore agrees that if any payment of Annual Rental shall be overdue for ten (10) days beyond the date on which it is due and payable as provided in this Lease, an
*** SAN FRANCISCO MARITIME NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK ***
**** PACIFIC WEST REGION — NATIONAL PARK SERVICE ****

 


 

Haslett Warehouse
HL-SAF001-99
PAGE 33
      additional late charge of five percent (5%) of the sums so overdue shall become immediately due and payable. Lessee agrees that such amount is a reasonable estimate of the expense to be suffered by Lessor as a result of such late payment by Lessee and may be charged by Lessor to defray such expense. In the event of nonpayment of interest or late charges on overdue Annual Rental, Lessor shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the rights and remedies provided in this Lease and by Applicable Laws for nonpayment of rent.
  5.8.   Lease not a Concession Authorization
 
      This Lease encompasses all amounts due to Lessor for the rights to use the Premises and to conduct the operations authorized by this Lease. This Lease is not a concession contract and neither authorizes services for Park concession purposes nor requires concession-related payments or fees.
6.   IMPOSITIONS
  6.1.   Lessee’s Obligation for Impositions
  6.1.1.   In addition to Annual Rental and all other amounts and charges due under this Lease, Lessee covenants and agrees to bear, discharge and pay to the relevant Agency, in lawful money of the United States, without offset or deduction, as the same become due, before delinquency, all Impositions that may be assessed, levied, confirmed, imposed or become a lien upon the Premises or any part thereof that become payable from and after the Commencement Date until the later of (a) last day of the Term hereof, or (b) the last day Lessee has possession of the Premises.
  6.1.2.   In addition, it shall be Lessee’s sole responsibility to apply for and prosecute any exemption from any Impositions that may be imposed from and after the Commencement Date, which Lessee shall pay if necessary and which shall be at no expense to Lessor. However, Lessor agrees to cooperate with Lessee’s reasonable requests to assist in any such application for exemption.

      Impositions for which a failure to pay may result in a lien upon the Premises, and, in all other cases, upon request of Lessor.
7.   AUDIT AND RECORDS
  7.1.   Books and Records

Any such inspection shall be scheduled as soon as possible upon the request of Lessor during normal business hours at a mutually acceptable time and shall be undertaken so as to minimize, to the extent reasonably possible, any interference with the conduct of Lessee’s business. If at any time during the Term, said books, records and accounts prove inadequate to record Gross Receipts and the Rent Roll or provide other information in the detail required under this Lease, Lessee shall, upon the request of Lessor, procure and maintain such books, records and accounts as shall be of a character and form adequate for said purpose.

      verify the calculation and payment of Percentage Rental for any of the three (3) preceding Lease Years.
  7.3.2.   If it shall be determined by Lessor as a result of such audit that there has been a deficiency in the payment of any Percentage Rental for any Lease Year, then such deficiency shall become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the date the payment should have been made until paid. If such audit determines that there has been an overpayment of any rentals, such overpayment shall be credited against the next rents and charges due to Lessor under this Lease.
  7.3.3.   If Lessee disputes the findings of the audit conducted by Lessor or if the amount of deficiency is estimated by Lessor to be greater than five percent (5%) of the amount due, then, at the requirement of the Lessor, upon prior notice and during normal business hours, Lessee shall provide Lessor access to those records relating to the Premises and Lessee’s use and occupancy of the Premises under this Lease that are necessary for the purpose of conducting an audit of such records by an independent certified public accountant to verify the calculation and payment of Percentage Rental for any of the three (3) preceding Lease Years. The accountant shall consult with both parties during the audit process.
  7.3.4.   If it shall be determined as a result of such audit that there has been a deficiency in the payment of any Percentage Rental for any Lease Year, then such deficiency shall become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the date the payment should have been made until paid. If such audit determines that there has been an overpayment of any rentals, such overpayment shall be credited against the next rents and charges due to Lessor under this Lease.

  15.4.6.   Lessor may issue a Conditional Certificate of Occupancy at the request of the Lessee and when construction of Initial Lessee Improvements or Major Alterations is completed to the point that Lessee can commence pre-opening operations without threat to life or safety. Lessor’s determination to issue, and issuance of, such Conditional Certificate of Occupancy by Lessor shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Lessee may operate the Premises under a Conditional Certificate of Occupancy if the Conditional Certificate of Occupancy authorizes such operations and provided that all construction necessary for the safe operation of the Premises and the protection of the life and safety of all members of the public coming on the Premises has been completed, in accordance with all Applicable Laws and the terms of this Lease.
 
  15.4.7.   In no event shall Lessee open the Premises to the public without either (a) the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy or (b) the issuance of a Conditional Certificate of Occupancy.
  15.5.   On Site Inspection

No inspection performed or not performed by Lessor under this Lease shall give or be deemed to give Lessor any responsibility or liability with respect to the work or the prosecution thereof or the design or construction of Initial Lessee Improvements, Alterations or Preservation Maintenance or constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease or be construed as approval or acceptance of the work or the prosecution thereof or the design or construction of Initial Lessee Improvements, Alterations or Preservation Maintenance.
16.   PERMITS AND APPROVALS
  16.1.   Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee shall be solely responsible for obtaining, at its sole cost and expense, the approval of

      any Agency for any permit or other governmental action necessary to permit the activities under this Lease. Lessor, at no expense to itself, shall cooperate with Lessee to the extent reasonably required to obtain all such permits and approvals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall not submit to any person or entity, including any Agency, information regarding Lessor or Lessor’s lands without Lessor’s prior written approval, unless the communication of information is in response to a valid order by a court or Agency or to obtain a permit, approval or financing or is otherwise required to be released by law, in which case Lessee shall immediately provide Lessor with written notice of such order or requirement, identifying the specific information released. In addition, Lessee may release such information that is necessary for Lessee to obtain insurance, and upon release of such information, Lessee shall provide Lessor with written notice indicating what information was so released.
 
  16.2.   Although Lessee’s operations will be conducted on Federal property, Lessee shall generally use and operate in the Premises as if subject to state and local ordinances in the same manner as if the Premises were not under Federal ownership.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any construction activities associated with the construction of the Initial Lessee Improvements or any Alterations, Preservation Maintenance, or any repair and maintenance activities within, on or about the Premises, are located on or encroach upon non-federal property outside of the Premises or property over which Lessor does not have jurisdiction, for example, overhanging canopies, sidewalk cafes, curb cuts, temporary or permanent street or sidewalk closures, or the like, Lessee shall obtain at its sole cost and expense all necessary city, county, and/or state or other state and local permits, approvals, inspections and/or certifications pertaining to such activities.
 
  16.3.   If Lessee is unable to obtain, for reasons beyond Lessee’s control, all Agency related approvals necessary for the operation of a hotel, restaurant, and related uses in the Premises, then Lessee shall notify the Lessor in writing of the specific approvals required and shall allow

17.   EXCAVATION, SITE, AND GROUND DISTURBANCE

Title to real property and improvements and Fixtures thereon, including Initial Lessee Improvements, Alterations, Building Maintenance and Preservation Maintenance to Premises but excluding Trade Fixtures shall be and remain solely in Lessor.
 
  18.2.   Lessor acknowledges that covenants which allow Lessor certain control and rights of approval over Personal Property items placed upon the Premises by Lessee are provided only to insure conformance with the terms of this Lease, but such covenants do not vest in, nor shall they be construed as vesting in Lessor an ownership interest in such items.
 
  18.3.   Upon removal of Personal Property at any time during the Term or upon expiration of this Lease, Lessee shall (a) repair all damage caused by such removal at Lessee’s sole cost and expense and ensure that no safety hazard is created by such removal, (b) cause a neat appearance to remain in the area of removal, and (c) perform Preservation Maintenance of any damaged area of the Premises.
 
  18.4.   Lessor and Lessee agree that sublessees of the Office Space, Retail Space and Restaurant Space will install personal property and/or trade fixtures related to their use of Premises and that the ownership, installation, and removal of such property by such sublessees shall be governed by the terms of the sublease between Lessee and its sublessee. At the termination of such subleases, Lessee shall, either at

Lessee shall repair all damage caused by such property removal in accordance with the terms of Section 18.3 above. Lessee shall cause any proposed installation, improvements or alterations of the Premises by sublessees to comply with the terms and conditions of this Lease.
19.   BUILDING MAINTENANCE AND PRESERVATION MAINTENANCE
  19.1.   If this Lease is not terminated by Lessee at the termination of the Due Diligence Period pursuant to Section 3.2 of this Lease, in addition to Lessee’s other obligations pursuant to this Lease, Lessee shall, with due diligence, at its own cost and expense and without any cost or expense to Lessor: (a) promptly and continuously perform all Building Maintenance; (b) subject to the approved Preservation Plan promptly and continuously perform all Preservation Maintenance; (c) allow no nuisances to exist or be maintained thereon; and (d) not commit or permit waste upon the Premises.
 
  19.2.   Lessor shall not be obligated to perform any Building Maintenance, Preservation Maintenance, Initial Lessee Improvements or Alterations of any kind whatsoever of or to the Premises and Lessee hereby expressly waives any right under any Applicable Laws that would otherwise permit Lessee to perform Building Maintenance, Preservation Maintenance, Initial Lessee Improvements or Alterations at Lessor’s expense.
 
  19.3.   During the Term, Lessee shall schedule and perform Building Maintenance and Preservation Maintenance, and construct the Initial Lessee Improvements and Alterations reasonably expected to be necessary to the Premises so as to avoid deterioration, keep the Premises in good order, condition and repair, and to comply with all Applicable Laws and the Hotel Standard.

If Lessee timely notifies Lessor of its election to make or install such capital improvements and to bear all costs, that is, pay Lessor’s Share plus Lessee’s Share, then Lessor’s termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 19.4.1(a) shall be deemed withdrawn and void ab initio , provided Lessee commences to make or install such capital improvements and to bear all costs, that is, pay Lessor’s Share plus Lessee’s Share, to Lessor’s reasonable satisfaction.
 
  19.4.2.   If Lessor does not terminate the Lease pursuant to Section 19.4.1(a) above, if applicable, then if Lessee’s Share (as defined below) of the cost of such capital improvements exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), which amount (as adjusted for increases in the CPI since the Commencement Date) shall be reduced to Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) as of the date that is four (4) years before the then-scheduled expiration date of the Term, to Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) as of the date that is three (3) years before the then-scheduled expiration date of the Term, to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) as of the date that is two (2) years before the then-scheduled expiration date of the Term, and to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) as of the date that is one (1) year before the then-scheduled expiration date of the Term; then Lessee

  19.5.   Within thirty (30) days of the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy, Lessee shall submit to Lessor for approval a Preservation Plan, which Preservation Plan shall, upon request by Lessor, be periodically amended during the Term.

  22.2.   Except as specifically permitted under Sections 22.8, 22.9, or 22.10 of this Lease, Lessee shall not, and Lessee shall ensure that Affiliates, Lessee’s Agents, employees, guests, visitors, invitees, sublessees, licensees, and permittees and other persons or entities under the control of Lessee during the Term shall not bring, generate or otherwise use, handle, treat, store, sell, dispose of, discharge or release any Hazardous Material upon, about, beneath or from the Premises, except for limited quantities of standard office, personal care, and janitorial supplies containing chemicals categorized as Hazardous Materials brought, generated or otherwise used, handled, treated, stored, sold, disposed of, discharged and released in compliance with Applicable Laws and excepting those materials otherwise identified in this Lease to be part of the process of completion of Initial Lessee Improvements.

  22.3.   If Lessee or Lessor become aware of, or reasonably suspect, or receive notice or other communication concerning (a) any actual, alleged or threatened violation of any Applicable Laws (i) by Lessee, Affiliates, Lessee’s Agents, employees, guests, visitors, invitees, sublessees, licensees, and permittees and other persons or entities under the control of Lessee during the Term and in connection with the Premises or (ii) from past or present activities of any person in connection with the Premises, or (b) of any liability of Lessee, Lessee’s Agents, employees, guests, visitors, invitees, sublessees, licensees, and permittees and other persons or entities under the control of Lessee during the Term for Environmental Damages in connection with the Premises, then such

      party shall deliver to the other party, immediately upon receipt of such notice or communication by Lessee, a written description of such alleged violation or liability together with copies of any documents evidencing same. Receipt of such notice shall not be deemed to create any obligation on the part of Lessor to defend or otherwise respond to any such notification.
 
  22.4.   Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly take all actions required under Applicable Laws by any Agency to remedy damage to the Premises or neighboring property that arises directly or indirectly from or in connection with the presence, or release of any Hazardous Material introduced in or into the air, soil, surface water or ground water by Lessee’s, Affiliates’, Lessee’s Agents’, employees’, guests’, visitors’, invitees’, sublessees’, licensees’, and permittees’ and other persons’ or entities’ under the control of Lessee during the Term use of the Premises. Such actions may include but are not limited to the investigation of the environmental condition of the areas adversely affected (“Affected Property”) by Lessee’s breach of any of the provisions of this Lease, as well as the preparation and performance of any cleanup, remediation, containment, operation, maintenance, monitoring or restoration work, whether on or off of the Affected Property. Lessee shall take all actions required under Applicable Laws and shall restore (such word being used as contemplated by environmental laws rather than historic preservation laws and regulations) the Affected Property to a condition substantially equal to that existing prior to the introduction of the Hazardous Materials upon, about, in, into, or beneath the Affected Property, in accordance with the standard of remediation imposed by Applicable Laws. (To the extent of such impacted conditions, those portions of any Affected Property that cannot be restored to substantially the pre-existing condition shall be restored in accordance with the standards or requirements imposed by Applicable Law to the degree deemed necessary or appropriate by the Agency with jurisdiction to enforce Applicable Laws.) Lessee shall proceed continuously and diligently with such investigatory and remedial actions and these actions shall be performed in accordance with Applicable Laws in a good, safe and workmanlike manner by one or more licensed and reputable contractors experienced in the conduct of remedial actions in areas containing significant natural and cultural resources or comparable experience. Such contractor shall not be an Excluded Contractor. Lessee shall pay all costs and expenses in connection with such investigatory and remedial activities chargeable to Lessee, including but not limited to the charges of such contractor(s), all power and utility costs, any and all taxes or fees that may be applicable to such activities, and all reasonable costs incurred by Lessor in connection with the monitoring or reviewing of such investigatory or

Lessee shall promptly provide to Lessor copies of all unprivileged testing results and reports generated in connection with the aforementioned activities unless Lessor shall be made a party to such investigatory or remedial activities and in which case Lessee will provide Lessor with any and all such testing results and reports. Promptly upon completion of such investigation and remediation, Lessee shall remove all associated Personal Property, debris, materials and the like, to the reasonable satisfaction of Lessor.
 
  22.5.   Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, at all reasonable times and, except in the case of emergency, following advance notice to Lessee, to enter upon the Premises, as may be necessary as determined by Lessor in its reasonable discretion, to conduct inspections and non-invasive tests of the Premises to determine whether Lessee is complying with all Applicable Laws, at Lessor’s sole expense. Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to retain independent professional consultants to enter the Premises to conduct such inspections and to review any report prepared by or for Lessee concerning such compliance. Upon Lessee’s request, Lessor will make available to Lessee copies of all final reports and written data obtained by Lessor from such tests and investigations. Lessee expressly recognizes that it shall have no claim against Lessor for injury, loss, or other costs occasioned by any inconvenience to or interference with Lessee’s, Affiliates’, Lessee’s Agents’, employees’, guests’, visitors’, invitees’, sublessees’, licensees’, and permittees’ and other persons’ or entities’ under the control of Lessee during the Term use of the Premises as a result of Lessor’s exercise of the rights reserved to it under this Section 22.5 except to the extent such claims are covered by Federal law.
 
  22.6.   In addition to all other indemnity requirements set forth in this Lease, and except as provided in Section 22.7 below, Lessee expressly agrees to indemnify, reimburse, defend save and hold harmless Lessor and Lessor’s Agents for and from any and all Environmental Damages as set forth in Section 25 of this Lease.
 
  22.7.   This Lease does not create a separate obligation on the part of Lessee and in favor of Lessor to remediate Preexisting Hazardous Materials nor does it limit or expand the rights or defenses of Lessor or the Lessee with respect to such Preexisting Hazardous Materials. Consequently, the provisions of Sections 22.4 and 22.6 above shall not apply to Preexisting Hazardous Materials except to the extent that: (a) Lessee’s, Affiliates’, Lessee’s Agents’, employees’, guests’, visitors’, invitees’, sublessees’, licensees’, and permittees’ and other persons’ or entities’ under the control of Lessee during the Term negligence or willful

This Section does not relieve Lessee of any obligation it might have with regard to third parties or any Agency by operation of Applicable Laws, including but not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act.
 
  22.8.   Lessee understands and acknowledges that the area and soils beneath the Premises are not leased to Lessee and may contain subsurface deposits of lead or lead slag resulting from prior use of the site for a lead smelting works between 1867 and 1885 and creosote associated with the preservation of the existing building substructure. Nothing in this Lease requires Lessor (or Lessee except as expressly stated herein) to remove or otherwise remediate (or otherwise incur any liability with respect to) creosote, lead or lead slag deposits, or other Hazardous Materials, that may underlie the Premises. However, whenever Lessee performs Preservation Maintenance and/or Building Maintenance, or constructs Initial Lessee Improvements and/or Alterations and/or makes an installation on the Premises or under the Premises and/or otherwise disturbs the area or soils beneath the Premises, Lessee shall comply with all Applicable Laws related to the removal or remediation of creosote, lead or lead slag deposits, or other Hazardous Materials, as applicable, and to the extent such material is removed in the course of such work, Lessee shall be designated as the generator and shall arrange for the removal of such amounts of creosote, lead or lead slag-laden soil, or soils containing other Hazardous Materials, as applicable, in compliance with Applicable Laws. Lessee shall arrange for such removal and disposal of such soil with appropriate licensed contractors, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense.
 
  22.9.   Lessee understands and acknowledges that the Premises may contain asbestos and lead-based paint. Therefore, Lessee hereby agrees that, during the Term, any necessary costs of removal or remediation with respect to asbestos or lead-based paint in the Premises or in areas adjacent to the Premises for which access is necessary by Lessee in order to operate or maintain Premises shall be the responsibility of Lessee and Lessor shall not be responsible for such removal, remediation or costs associated therewith. Whenever Lessee performs Preservation Maintenance, Initial Lessee Improvements, Alterations,

Lessee shall furnish a copy of such management and remediation plans to Lessor before construction of Initial Lessee Improvements and/or Alterations and annually as part of the Preservation Plan.
 
  22.11.   Should Lessee fail to perform or observe any of its obligations or agreements pertaining to Hazardous Materials or Applicable Laws for a period of thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as is reasonably required) after notice, then Lessor shall have the right, but not the duty, without limitation of any other rights of Lessor under this Lease on its own behalf or through its agents, consultants or contractors, to enter the Premises and perform the same. Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor for the costs thereof and to indemnify Lessor for liabilities therefrom as set in Section 22.6 of this Lease.
 
  22.12.   The provisions of this Section 22 shall survive any termination of this Lease. Section 23 of this Lease shall not limit in any way Lessee’s or Lessor’s obligations under this Section 22.

28.   LEASEHOLD MORTGAGES
  28.1.   Additional Definitions. For purposes of this Section 28, the following terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth:
  28.1.1.   “Assignment for Security” shall mean a transaction or transactions in which Lessee:
  (i)   assigns all or any portion of its interest hereunder for the purpose of security (“Assignment”); and/or
 
  (ii)   executes a deed of trust (“Deed of Trust”) with respect to all or any portion of its interest hereunder; and/or
 
  (iii)   executes a mortgage (“Mortgage”) with respect to all or any portion of its interest hereunder; and/or
 
  (iv)   sells and assigns and leases or subleases back all or any portion of its interest under this Lease, in connection with a refinancing transaction in which Lessee obtains debt, repayment of which is secured in whole or in part, or becomes an obligation in whole or in part incurred by Lessee in the transaction in which such sale, assignment and lease or sublease back is delivered or consummated. In the event that the Lessee enters into such a sale-leaseback or lease-leaseback transaction, the Lessee shall nonetheless remain fully responsible for all of its obligations under this Lease, even after completing the sale-leaseback or lease-leaseback transaction, until and unless it is otherwise released from liability in accordance with the provisions of this Lease. The use of such a transaction is permitted for refinancing purposes only, and not for the initial financing of the Initial Lessee Improvements. The other party in such a transaction will be treated as a Leasehold Mortgagee as defined in this Lease.
  28.1.2.   “Leasehold Mortgage” shall mean the encumbrance created by and all of the instruments of encumbrance in connection with an Assignment for Security, including, without limitation, a Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Assignment, reassignment or other instrument regardless of the form of the transaction.

  28.1.3.   “Leasehold Mortgagee” shall mean the secured party under a Leasehold Mortgage regardless of the type of interest created in such secured party by the Assignment for Security under such Leasehold Mortgage.
 
  28.1.4.   “Mortgaged Premises” shall mean Lessee’s interest under this Lease encumbered by a Leasehold Mortgage.
  28.2.   Lessee may, subject to the requirements of this Lease, mortgage its interest in the leasehold estate created by this Lease and may grant a security interest in the Personal Property situated thereon by a Leasehold Mortgage. Lessee shall have the right, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 28, to enter into Assignments for Security so long as Lessee (or a successor taking by assignment) remains liable, to the extent provided for in this Lease, for performance of all Lessee obligations hereunder. A Leasehold Mortgage shall cover no interest in any real property other than (a) Lessee’s interest in the Premises and the Trade Fixtures or some portion thereof, (b) any subleases thereon, and (c) any Personal Property of Lessee. With the exception of the rights expressly granted to Leasehold Mortgagees in this Lease, the execution and delivery of a Leasehold Mortgage shall not give a Leasehold Mortgagee any greater rights than those granted Lessee hereunder.
 
  28.3.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any rights given hereunder to Leasehold Mortgagees shall not apply to more than two (2) Leasehold Mortgagees at any one time. Once a Leasehold Mortgagee is designated by Lessee, Lessee shall not designate different or additional Leasehold Mortgagees without the written consent of the Leasehold Mortgagee first designated, or the earlier termination of such Leasehold Mortgage. In the event that at any time there are more than two (2) Leasehold Mortgagees, Lessee shall notify Lessor in writing of the two (2) Leasehold Mortgagees to which such rights should apply.

  28.4.1.   Except for Leasehold Mortgages permitted without Lessor’s permission pursuant to Section 28.6, at no time may the total of all Leasehold Mortgages on the Premises, as of the date that the latest Leasehold Mortgage is granted, exceed eighty percent (80%) of the total value of the Premises as estimated by the appraiser for the latest Leasehold Mortgagee at or about such time. The appraiser shall be a current member in good standing of either the American Society of Appraisers (“ASA”) or the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”), and shall also be a member of

Promptly upon demand, Lessee shall cause a complete copy of such appraisal, together with all supporting documentation, to Lessor for determination of compliance with the terms and conditions of this Lease. Lessee shall bear all costs of any such appraisal.
  28.4.2.   No Leasehold Mortgage will be approved by Lessor or will be entered into by Lessee that has a maturity date beyond the Term.
 
  28.4.3.   From the date which is the termination of the Due Diligence Period until issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy, a Leasehold Mortgage shall be made only for the purposes of:
  (a)   short-term, interim or construction financing incurred to finance demolition and construction costs relating to the Premises and Fixtures, or to acquire and install the Personal Property and supplies;
 
  (b)   interim, long-term or take-out financing of the completed development referred to in Section 28.4.3(a) above; or
 
  (c)   long-term or permanent financing of the take-out loans referred to in Section 28.4.3(b) above.

      The Lessor shall be provided with copies of the draft initial Leasehold Mortgage instruments prior to their execution and shall approve such draft Leasehold Mortgage instruments or shall make any objections within thirty (30) days from the date of the receipt of the complete documentation of the Leasehold Mortgage. Lessor shall review the drafts for the purpose of evaluating their conformity with this Lease, acceptability of the encumbrance instruments, and consistency with the Financing Commitment. Lessor shall have an additional five (5) business days to review and approve or disapprove any revisions to the final Leasehold Mortgage documentation made after the Lessee and

      Leasehold Mortgagee have negotiated the financing of the Initial Lessee Improvements, but prior to the scheduled closing of escrow of the initial Leasehold Mortgage.
  28.6.   Lessor’s prior written approval shall not be required for refinancing, whether pursuant to foreclosure or otherwise, an amount not to exceed the largest amount of total Leasehold Mortgages in effect at any one time as previously approved by Lessor pursuant to Sections 28.5 and 28.7 of this Lease provided that the source of funds is a Bona Fide Institutional Lender. Lessee shall promptly provide Lessor notice of any such refinancing in accordance with Section 28.7 and Section 39 of this Lease.
 
  28.7.   Lessor’s prior written approval shall be required for any refinancing that exceeds the total amount of all mortgage financing previously approved by Lessor to be in effect at any one time, or any financing from other than a Bona Fide Institutional Lender. Lessor shall be provided with copies of any such draft Leasehold Mortgage instruments prior to their execution and shall approve or shall make any objections to such draft instruments within thirty (30) days from the date of the receipt of the complete documentation of the Leasehold Mortgage. Lessor shall review the drafts for the purpose of evaluating their conformity with this Lease, acceptability of the encumbrance instruments, and consistency with the refinance commitment.

  28.8.   Lessee shall deliver to Lessor, promptly after execution by Lessee, a copy, certified by Lessee as a true copy, of any Leasehold Mortgage and any subsequent amendment, modification or extension thereof, together with the name and address of the owner(s) and holder(s) thereof.
 
  28.9.   Lessee shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Leasehold Mortgage documents to contain provisions permitting the disposition and application of the insurance proceeds and condemnation awards with respect to the Premises in the manner provided in this Lease. To the extent that Lessee is unsuccessful in so doing despite such efforts, insurance proceeds and condemnation awards shall be applied in accordance with the Leasehold Mortgage documents and the laws of the State of California (to the extent not otherwise addressed under federal laws).

  28.13.   Leasehold Mortgagee’s Right to Cure.
 
      If Lessee, or Lessee’s successors or assigns, shall mortgage this Lease in compliance with the provisions of this Section, then, so long as any such Leasehold Mortgage shall remain unsatisfied of record, the following provisions shall apply:
  28.13.1.   In the case of any notice of default given by Lessor to Lessee and Leasehold Mortgagee in accordance with Section 28.12 above, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the same concurrent cure periods as are given Lessee under this Lease for remedying a default or causing it to be remedied, plus, in each case, an additional period of thirty (30) days after the later to occur of (i) the expiration of such cure period, or (ii) the date that Lessor has served a notice of default upon Leasehold Mortgagee, and Lessor shall accept such performance by or at the instance of the Leasehold Mortgagee as if the same had been made by Lessee; provided, however, if such default cannot reasonably be cured or remedied by the Leasehold Mortgagee within such additional thirty (30) day period, such cure period shall be extended (and no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred under this Lease) so long as the Leasehold Mortgagee commences the cure or remedy within such period, and prosecutes the completion thereof with diligence and dispatch, subject to Force Majeure and delays caused by foreclosure, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

Upon such a foreclosure or other acquisition of Lessee’s interest under the Lease, Lessor shall recognize such Leasehold Mortgagee, or any other foreclosure or trustee sale purchaser or recipient of any deed in lieu as Lessee hereunder (provided that such acquirer is not an Excluded Contractor) for a period of sixty (60) days following such foreclosure or other acquisition of Lessee’s interest under the Lease to obtain approval by the Director of the National Park Service as required under 36 C.F.R. Section 18.10(d) and Section 27 above for approval of a successor lessee and upon such approval, such successor lessee shall take Lessee’s interest in the Premises subject to all of the terms, agreements, covenants, conditions and provisions in this Lease and shall accept and agree in writing to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Lease and assume Lessee’s obligations hereunder. A Leasehold Mortgagee anticipating acquisition of Lessee’s interest under the Lease may request prior approval by the Director of a proposed Transferee (including a Transfer to such Leasehold Mortgagee). A Leasehold Mortgagee, upon acquiring Lessee’s interest under this Lease, shall be required promptly to cure all other defaults then reasonably susceptible of being cured by such Leasehold Mortgagee. The foregoing provisions of this Section 28.13.2 are subject to the following: (i) no Leasehold Mortgagee shall be obligated to continue possession or to continue foreclosure proceedings, provided that it complies with the last sentence of this Section 28.13.2; (ii) nothing herein contained shall preclude Lessor, subject to the provisions of this Section, from exercising any rights or remedies under this Lease (other than a termination of this Lease to the extent otherwise permitted hereunder) with respect to any other Event of Default by Lessee during the pendency of such foreclosure proceedings; and (iii) such Leasehold Mortgagee shall agree with Lessor in writing to comply during the period Lessor forebears from terminating this Lease with such of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease as are reasonably susceptible of being complied with by such Leasehold Mortgagee.

      agreement by Leasehold Mortgagee given under clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, Leasehold Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to notify Lessor that it has relinquished possession of the Premises or that it will not institute foreclosure proceedings or, if such foreclosure proceedings have commenced, that it has discontinued them, and, in such event, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall have no further liability under such agreement from and after the date it delivers such notice to Lessor, and, thereupon, Lessor shall be entitled to seek the termination of this Lease as otherwise herein provided. Upon any such termination, the provisions of this Section 28.13.2 shall apply.
  28.13.2.1.   If the default of Lessee is with respect to construction of the Initial Lessee Improvements, nothing contained in this Section 28.13 or in any other Section or provision of this Lease shall be deemed to require, permit or authorize Leasehold Mortgagee, either before or after foreclosure or action in lieu thereof, to undertake or continue the construction or completion of the Initial Lessee Improvements beyond the extent necessary to conserve or protect the Initial Lessee Improvements or construction already made, without first (in its sole discretion) having expressly assumed Lessee’s obligation to Lessor by written agreement reasonably satisfactory to Lessor, to complete, in the manner provided in this Lease, the Initial Lessee Improvements on the Premises or the part thereof to which the lien or title of such Leasehold Mortgagee relates, and submitted evidence satisfactory to Lessor that it has the qualifications and financial responsibility necessary to perform such obligation.
 
  28.13.2.2.   Upon assuming Lessee’s obligations to complete the Initial Lessee Improvements in accordance with Section 28.13.2.1 above, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall be required only to exercise due diligence in completion of the construction of the Initial Lessee

  28.13.2.3.   Any transferee of a Leasehold Mortgagee or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale other than a Leasehold Mortgagee shall be obligated to complete the Initial Lessee Improvements and exercise due diligence in the completion of the construction thereof, but shall not be required to complete construction of the Initial Lessee Improvements within the dates set forth in Section 15 of this Lease.
 
  28.13.2.4.   Any assuming Leasehold Mortgagee or transferee properly completing such Initial Lessee Improvements shall be entitled, upon written request made to Lessor, to a Certificate of Occupancy from Lessor with respect to such Initial Lessee Improvements to the same extent and in the same manner as Lessee would have been entitled had Lessee not defaulted.
  28.13.3.   In the event of the termination of this Lease prior to the expiration of the Term, except (i) by eminent domain, or (ii) as the result of damage or destruction as provided in Section 24 of this Lease, Lessor shall serve upon the Leasehold Mortgagee written notice that this Lease has been terminated, together with a statement of any and all sums which would at that time be due under this Lease but for such termination, and of all other defaults, if any, under this Lease then known to Lessor. The Leasehold Mortgagee shall thereupon have the option to obtain a new Lease in accordance with and upon the following terms and conditions:
  28.13.3.1.   Upon the written request of the Leasehold Mortgagee, within thirty (30) days after service of such notice that this Lease has been terminated, Lessor shall enter into a new lease of the Premises with the most senior Leasehold Mortgagee giving notice within such period; and

  28.13.3.2.   Such new Lease shall be entered into at the reasonable cost of the Leasehold Mortgagee thereunder, shall be effective as of the date of termination of this Lease, and shall be for the remainder of the Term and at the rent and upon all the agreements, terms, covenants and conditions hereof, including any applicable rights of renewal. Such new Lease shall require the Leasehold Mortgagee to perform any unfulfilled obligation of Lessee under this Lease which is reasonably susceptible of being performed by such Leasehold Mortgagee other than obligations of Lessee with respect to construction of the Initial Lessee Improvements, which obligations shall be performed by Leasehold Mortgagee in accordance with this Section 28.13.3. Upon the execution of such new Lease, the Leasehold Mortgagee shall pay any and all sums which would at the time of the execution thereof be due under this Lease but for such termination, and shall pay all expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, court costs and disbursements incurred by Lessor in connection with such defaults and termination, the recovery of possession of the Premises, and the preparation, execution and delivery of such new Lease.
  28.13.4.   Effective upon the commencement of the term of any new Lease executed pursuant to this Section 28.13.4, all subleases then in effect shall be assigned and transferred without recourse by Lessor to Leasehold Mortgagee and all monies on deposit with Lessor which Lessee would have been entitled to use but for the termination or expiration of this Lease may be used by Leasehold Mortgagee for the purposes of and in accordance with the provisions of such new lease. Between the date of termination of this Lease and commencement of the term of the new lease, Lessor shall not (a) enter into any new subleases, management agreements or agreements for the maintenance of the Premises or the supplies therefor which would be binding upon Leasehold Mortgagee if

  28.13.8.   Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, no Leasehold Mortgagee, or its designee or nominee, shall become liable under the provisions of this Lease unless and until such time as it becomes, and then only for so long as it remains, the owner of the leasehold estate created hereby.
  28.14.   Assignment by Leasehold Mortgagee
 
      If a Leasehold Mortgagee shall acquire Lessee’s interest in this Lease as a result of a sale under said Leasehold Mortgage pursuant to a power of sale contained therein, pursuant to a judgment of foreclosure, through any transfer in lieu of foreclosure, or through settlement of or arising out of any pending or contemplated foreclosure, bankruptcy or insolvency action, or in the event a Leasehold Mortgagee becomes Lessee under this Lease or any new Lease obtained pursuant to this Section 28.13.4, such Mortgagee’s right thereafter to assign or transfer this Lease or such new Lease shall be subject to the restrictions of Section 27 of this Lease. In the event Leasehold Mortgagee subsequently assigns or transfers its interest under this Lease after acquiring the same by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure or subsequently assigns or transfers its interest under any new lease obtained pursuant to Section 28.13.4 above, and in

      connection with any such assignment or transfer, Leasehold Mortgagee takes back a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering such leasehold interest to secure a portion of the purchase price given to Leasehold Mortgagee for such assignment of transfer, then such mortgage or deed of trust shall be considered a Leasehold Mortgage, and Leasehold Mortgagee shall be entitled to receive the benefit and enforce the provisions of this Section 28 and any other provisions of this Lease intended for the benefit of the holder of a Leasehold Mortgage.
  28.15.   Condemnation Proceeds
 
      If more than one Leasehold Mortgagee should assert a right to condemnation or private sale proceeds payable to, or for the account of, Lessee, then subject to the terms of the applicable Leasehold Mortgage, Lessee’s share of the condemnation or private sale proceeds shall be distributed in accordance with the directions of the Leasehold Mortgagee whose Leasehold Mortgage constitutes the superior lien on the leasehold estate.
 
  28.16.   Execution of Documents
  28.16.1.   Lessor shall, upon request from Lessee, execute and deliver from time to time any agreement or document which may reasonably be deemed necessary to implement the provisions of this Section 28, provided that subordination of Lessor’s fee interest shall not be required.
 
  28.16.2.   Subject to the conditions set forth below, Lessor and Lessee shall cooperate to include in this Lease by suitable amendment from time to time any provision which may reasonably be requested by any proposed Leasehold Mortgagee for the purpose of implementing the mortgagee protection provisions contained in this Lease and allowing such Leasehold Mortgagee reasonable means to protect or preserve the lien of the Leasehold Mortgage or to avoid the impairment of its security on the occurrence of a default under the terms of this Lease.

  29.3.   In the event of any transfer of Lessor’s interest in and to the Premises, Lessor, subject to the provisions hereof, (and in case of any subsequent transfers, the then transferor) will automatically be relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all liability with regard to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Lessor (or such transferor, as the case may be) contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed, but not from liability incurred by Lessor (or such transferor, as the case may be) on account of covenants or obligations to be performed by Lessor (or such transferor, as the case may be) hereunder prior to the date of such transfer.
 
  29.4.   If this Lease is assigned to any person or entity other than another department or agency of the United Stated Government, Lessor, to the extent feasible, shall notify Lessee at least sixty (60) days prior to such assignment. Upon such notification, Lessee may make recommendations as to amendments to this Lease that would delete those portions of the Lease that have been included in the Lease because of Lessor’s status as an instrumentality of the United States Government and replace those provisions with provisions that are reasonably and customarily used with hotel ground leases for urban

     This Seventh Amendment is entered upon the basis of the following facts, understandings and intentions of the parties.
     WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee entered into that certain Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98), effective as of October 16, 2000 (the “Original Lease”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98) effective as of January 16, 2001 (the “First Amendment”), that certain Second Amendment to Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98) effective as of January 18, 2001 (the “Second Amendment”), that certain Third Amendment to Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98) effective as of January 22, 2001 (the “Third Amendment”), that certain Fourth Amendment to Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98) effective as of January 24, 2001 (the “Fourth Amendment”), that certain Fifth Amendment to Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98) effective as of January 29, 2001 (the “Fifth Amendment”), and that certain Sixth Amendment to Historic Lease (HL-SAFR001-98) effective as of February 1, 2001 (the “Sixth Amendment”), which shall be amended by this Seventh Amendment.

forth below.
     WHEREAS, the consistency determination process with the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (“BCDC”) has not yet been completed;
     WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee desire to amend the Lease in the manner set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions and covenants set forth below and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:
     1. The capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Original Lease, First Amendment, Second Amendment, Third Amendment, Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment, and Sixth Amendment.
     2. Section 3.2 is hereby amended to: insert “(a)” at the beginning of the first paragraph; and provide for an extension of the Due Diligence Period to February 28, 2001.
     3. Section 3.2 is hereby further amended to add the following:
(b) The Due Diligence Period shall be further extended beyond February 28, 2001 solely for the limited purpose of addressing the final decision by San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (“BCDC”) on Lessor’s consistency determination and request for letter of agreement (“Determination Request”). Such period of extension beyond February 28, 2001 (“Extended Due Diligence Period”) shall be as set forth below. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge that BCDC does not have the authority under 15 C.F.R. Part 930 (2000) to conditionally approve a Determination Request, and instead must either approve or disapprove it.
(c) On January 25, 2001, Lessor submitted the Determination Request to BCDC. Lessee and Lessor shall cooperate to expedite and facilitate processing of the Determination Request. Pursuant to 15 C.F.R. Section 930.41 (2000), inaction by BCDC at the end of forty-five (45) days (or sixty

(60) days if extended) from the date of Lessor’s submission of its Determination Request is deemed approval. Therefore, the Determination Request is deemed approved if BCDC has not acted on it by March 11, 2001, or by March 26, 2001, if an extension is requested by BCDC pursuant to 15 C.F.R. Section 930.41 (2000), (the “Required Response Date”). In the event that Lessor grants any extensions to the Required Response Date to BCDC beyond March 26, 2001, the Extended Due Diligence Period shall be extended for a commensurate period, the Required Response Date shall refer to such extended date, and the Determination Request shall be deemed approved as provided in 15 C.F.R. Section 930.41 (2000) if BCDC has not acted by such extended date. If BCDC has approved the Determination Request on or before the Required Response Date, the Extended Due Diligence Period shall terminate the day after the date of approval by BCDC.
(d) Lessee’s right to terminate this Lease under the procedures and requirements set forth in this Section 3.2 during the Extended Due Diligence Period is limited to: (i) the issuance by BCDC of its written disapproval of the Determination Request (A) without alternative measures, or (B) with a request for additional information from Lessor; or (ii) the issuance by BCDC of its written disapproval of the Determination Request which includes alternative measures which, if implemented, would (A) materially increase the costs to Lessee of performing its obligations under this Lease, (B) result in an imposition that is not commercially reasonable, or (C) materially adversely affect Lessee’s use of any portion of the Premises (individually and collectively, “Unacceptable Measures”).
(e) If BCDC disapproves the Determination Request without suggesting alternative measures or without requesting additional information from Lessor, Lessee shall have five (5) business days from the date of the BCDC disapproval to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 3.2. Alternatively, within five (5) business days from the date of the BCDC disapproval, Lessee may request in writing an extension of the Due Diligence Period from Lessor, and the Due Diligence Period shall be extended pursuant to the terms set forth in Section 3.2(g) for an additional thirty (30) days after the date of the BCDC action (the “Final Extended Due Diligence Period”) so that Lessor and BCDC may confer and attempt to resolve any disagreement.

(f) If BCDC disapproves the Determination Request and suggests alternative measures on or before the Required Response Date, then Lessee shall be permitted a five (5) business day period after the date of the disapproval to determine whether the disapproval includes Unacceptable Measures. If Lessee determines that it does not include Unacceptable Measures, then it shall so notify Lessor in writing within the five (5) business day period that it consents to the alternative measures, and the Extended Due Diligence Period shall be terminated at the end of the five (5) business day period. If Lessee determines that the BCDC disapproval includes Unacceptable Measures it may elect to: (i) terminate immediately and shall do so by providing written notice to the Lessor no later than the end of the five (5) business day period; or (ii) notify Lessor in writing during the five (5) business day period that it has reasonably determined that the BCDC measures include Unacceptable Measures (the “Unacceptable Measure Notice”).
(g) If Lessee elects to: (i) request an extension from Lessor pursuant to Section 3.2(e) above; (ii) deliver the Unacceptable Measure Notice to Lessor pursuant to Section 3.2(f)(ii) above; or (iii) if BCDC disapproves the Determination Request without alternative measures but requests additional information from Lessor prior to the Required Response Date, then the Extended Due Diligence Period shall be extended for up to an additional thirty (30) days after the date of the BCDC action as the Final Extended Due Diligence Period so that Lessor and BCDC may confer and attempt to resolve any disagreement between them or submit the supplemental information requested by BCDC. In consideration of the Final Extended Due Diligence Period, Lessee shall advance incrementally to Lessor funds sufficient to cover Lessor’s out-of-pocket costs for the design of the museum space as are reasonably required to keep pace with Lessee’s design and construction schedule, which total amount shall not exceed Two Hundred Sixty Thousand Dollars ($260,000.00). This amount shall be offset against the one-time payment payable to Lessor pursuant to Section 5.3.2 of the Lease. The Final Extended Due Diligence Period shall terminate: (w) upon written approval by BCDC; (x) at the end of the Final Extended Due Diligence Period; (y) upon receipt by Lessee of written notice from Lessor that negotiations have been terminated without resolution; or (z) in the event that resolution has been reached, five (5)

(h) If BCDC disapproves the Determination Request, or disapproves the Determination Request with alternative measures that Lessee has found to be Unacceptable Measures or has requested additional information and the Extended Due Diligence Period has been extended through the Final Extended Due Diligence Period, then Lessor, during the Final Extended Due Diligence Period, may elect to: (i) continue discussions with BCDC; (ii) resubmit the Determination Request with the additional information requested by BCDC (“Resubmission”); or (iii) pursue mediation under 15 C.F.R. Part 930 (2000). If Lessor so elects, it shall notify Lessee in writing prior to the end of the Final Extended Due Diligence Period, and Lessee shall be entitled to extend the Final Extended Due Diligence Period to: (w) five (5) business days after written approval or disapproval by BCDC on the Resubmission; (x) five (5) business days after receipt by Lessee of written notice from Lessor that the negotiations and/or mediation have been terminated without resolution; (y) in the event that a resolution has been reached, five (5) days after Lessee has received notice of the proposed resolution; or (z) by no later than June 1, 2001, whichever is the earliest date.
     4. Exhibit G, Schedule of Performance, is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with Exhibit G-1, Schedule of Performance attached hereto. All references to Exhibit G in the Lease shall mean Exhibit G-1.
     5. Upon execution of this Seventh Amendment, Lessee shall pay to Lessor Two Hundred and Twenty Thousand Dollars ($220,000) as follows:
          a. A nonrefundable advance payment of a portion of the one-time payment payable to Lessor pursuant to Section 5.3.2 of the Lease in the amount of One Hundred Seventy Thousand Dollars ($170,000); and

Section 32.6.1 pertaining to Lessee shall apply to such Leasehold Mortgagee or its assignee, as applicable. A Leasehold Mortgagee, its nominee or designee (other than Lessee) assuming Lessee’s obligations pursuant to Sections 28.13.2(e)(ii) or (iii) may subsequently assign its interest in the Lease in accordance with Section 28.14.
(f) A Leasehold Mortgagee may exercise its rights under this Section 28.13.2 through a nominee or designee (other than Lessee) which shall be treated for all purposes under this Section 28.13.2 as though it were a Leasehold Mortgagee, provided that such nominee or designee is a wholly owned subsidiary of Leasehold Mortgagee (directly or indirectly) and is not Lessee; and provided, further, that no Leasehold Mortgagee shall acquire title to this Lease through a nominee or designee which is an Excluded Contractor.
(g) Subject to Section 28.13.2(e) above, any successor lessee, including, without limitation, a Qualified Transferee, shall enter into an Assumption Agreement. If an Assumption Agreement has an effective date during the period of construction of the Initial Lessee Improvements, then such Assumption Agreement shall be further subject to potential time extensions provided under Section 28.13.2(j)(ii) or (iii) to the extent applicable. Additionally, a successor lessee approved pursuant to (i) Section 28.13.2(c) as a Qualified Transferee with an Operating Agreement (as defined in Section 28.13.2(k) below) with a person or entity that has all of the qualifications of an Approved Operator set forth in Sections 27.3 and 28.13.2 of this Lease, as reasonably determined by Lessor, and which is not an Excluded Contractor; or (ii) Section 28.13(e)(ii) shall maintain an Operating Agreement (as defined in Section 28.13.2(k) below) with an Approved Operator for the Term of this Lease. Any approval by Lessor as required by Section 28.13.2 shall apply only to the specific transaction thereby authorized and shall not relieve Lessee from any requirement of obtaining the prior written consent of Lessor, if required under this Lease, to any further sale, assignment, transfer described in this Section, including any change in an Approved Operator or Qualified Transferee.
(h) A Leasehold Mortgagee, upon acquiring Lessee’s interest under this Lease, shall be required promptly to cure all other defaults then reasonably susceptible of being cured by such Leasehold Mortgagee.

Lease ”; and
     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.5.1.1 of the Lease, CPI adjustments to the Base Rental shall be made every five (5) years during the Term with the first such adjustment to be made on the first day following the fifth anniversary of the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy, whichever occurs first; and
     WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessee desire to amend the Lease to reflect the first CPI adjustment to Base Rental in the manner set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions and covenants set forth below and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:
     1. The capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Lease.
     2. Pursuant to Section 5.5, Lessee is obligated to pay Base Rental, as part of the Annual Rental, commencing with the first day following issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Certificate of Occupancy, whichever occurs first.
     3. The Certificate of Occupancy was issued on September 17, 2003, therefore pursuant to Section 5.5.1.1 of the Lease, the first adjustment to the Base Rental shall occur on September 18, 2008. In addition, pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Lease, Lease Year 1 commenced on September 17, 2003 and each subsequent Lease Year shall commence on January 1 thereafter. A copy of the Certificate of Occupancy is attached hereto as Exhibit A .
     4. Pursuant to Section 5.5 of the Lease, the initial amount of the Base Rental was One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) payable in equal monthly installments of Eighty-Three Thousand Three Hundred and Thirty-Three Dollars and Thirty-Three cents ($83,333.33).
     5. Pursuant to Section 5.5.2 of the Lease, Lessor notified Lessee that commencing as of September 18, 2008, the Base Rental, as adjusted by CPI, shall be in the amount of One Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000), payable in

equal monthly installments of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). A worksheet showing the CPI calculations, together with a chart of the annual CPI, are attached hereto as Exhibits B-1 and B-2 .
     6. Pursuant to Section 5.5.1.1 of the Lease, CPI adjustments applicable to a partial month shall be remitted with the first full monthly payment due at the adjustment amount, however, since the amount of the CPI adjustment was not known until release of the October, 2008 CPI for the Bay Area, which occurred in December, 2008, Lessee received notification of the increase after the October, November and December 2008 payments of Base Rental were paid by Lessee to Lessor. Therefore, payment in the amount of Fifty-seven Thousand One Hundred Twenty-Three Dollars and Thirty Cents ($57,123.30) shall be due on December 30, 2008; which payment is comprised of the following amounts owed:
         
September 2008
  $ 7,123.29  
October 2008
  $ 16,666.67  
November 2008
  $ 16,666.67  
December 2008
  $ 16,666.67

     7. Commencing as of January 1, 2008 (Lease Year 6) through Lease Year 38, Percentage Rental shall be calculated pursuant to Section 5.6.1.3 of the Lease.
     8. Pursuant to Section 5.5.2 of the Lease, Lessor’s notice to Lessee of the CPI adjustment constitutes an amendment to the Lease as if duly executed by the Parties. This Tenth Amendment memorializes that amendment for the parties’ record-keeping purposes.
     9. This Tenth Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
     10. Except as otherwise expressly modified by the terms of this Tenth Amendment, the Lease remains unchanged and in full force and effect.

AGREEMENT
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions and covenants set forth below and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:
     1.  Definitions . The capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Lease.
     2.  Amended Section 1.72 . Section 1.72 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
     (a) “ Transfer ” means the direct or indirect, voluntary or by operation of law, sale, assignment, subletting, encumbering, pledge or other transfer or hypothecation of Lessee’s or any permitted assignee’s or sublessee’s interest in or rights with respect to the Premises or Lessee’s leasehold estate therein. Any sale or other transfer, including by consolidation, merger or reorganization, of a Controlling Interest in Lessee, or any permitted assignee or sublessee, if such entity is a corporation, or any sale or other transfer of a Controlling Interest in the partnership interests of such entity, if such entity is a partnership, or any sale or other transfer of a Controlling Interest in the membership interests of such entity, if such entity is a limited liability company, whether in a single transfer or in a series of related transfers, and whether directly or by sales or transfers of underlying membership or partnership or corporate ownership interests, shall be deemed a Transfer. In the event the Lessee is directly or indirectly owned by a real estate investment trust (“ REIT ”) or other entity which operates the Premises through a different wholly-owned entity owned directly or indirectly by such REIT (the “ Operating Affiliate ”), then, a “Transfer” shall include a change in the Controlling Interest of the Operating Affiliate whether in a single transfer or in a series of related transfers, whether directly or by sales or transfers of the underlying ownership interests. For illustrative examples, please see Attachments 1A and 1B attached to this Eleventh Amendment and incorporated herein by this reference.

related entity; or (ii) in the instance of a partnership, limited partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, or individual entrepreneurship, beneficial ownership of the capital assets of Lessee, Operating Affiliate, permitted assignee, sublessee or related entity so as to permit exercise of managerial authority over the actions and operations of Lessee, Operating Affiliate, permitted assignee, sublessee or related entity.
     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing definition of “Transfer,” a “Transfer” shall not include any transaction in connection with the granting of an Assignment for Security or Leasehold Mortgage pursuant to Section 28.2 below (but excluding a foreclosure or giving of a deed in lieu of foreclosure thereunder). A foreclosure or the giving of a deed in lieu shall be deemed a “Transfer” and shall require Lessor’s prior written approval in accordance with Section 28.13.2 below. For the avoidance of doubt a “Transfer” shall not include the sale, assignment, encumbrance or pledge, direct or indirect, of any (i) shares in any REIT, or (ii) partnership interests (sometimes referred to as “units”) in the operating partnership of any REIT.

If Lessee is not an Approved Operator, then it shall operate the Premises through an Approved Operator pursuant to an Operating Agreement (as defined in Section 28.13.2(k)), which shall require that such Approved Operator shall operate and manage the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Lessor acknowledges that Kimpton Hotel & Restaurant Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is the Approved Operator as of the Eleventh Amendment Effective Date.

Lessor shall approve or disapprove any written request for approval of an operator which written request shall include all the evidence reasonably necessary to make such determination within forty-five (45) days from the date of receipt by Lessor of such complete documentation supporting such written request. Lessor shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its approval of any operator. Any disapproval by Lessor shall set forth a written explanation of the grounds for such disapproval.

     6.  Amended Sections 25 . The phrase “Approved Operator (if applicable),” is hereby inserted immediately before the word “Affiliates” in each instance the word “Affiliates” appears in Section 25.

     8.  New Section 27.10 . Section 27 is hereby amended to add the following new Section 27.10:

All such defined terms shall be modified in the sublease as appropriate to reflect the applicable definitions in the sublease:
 
      “All terms, covenants, and provisions of this sublease and all rights, remedies and remedies of subtenant under this sublease are and shall at all times remain fully subject and subordinate in all respects to the Lease. If the Lease and the leasehold estate created thereby terminate, then this sublease shall terminate. In that event, subtenant, only at the election and request of Lessor (except as Lessor has agreed otherwise in writing) and to the extent lawful under Applicable Laws, shall attorn to Lessor, and recognize Lessor as subtenant’s direct landlord under this sublease, except that subtenant acknowledges that Lessor shall not be liable to the subtenant for any security deposit or prepaid rent or funds previously paid by such subtenant to Lessee unless such deposits are transferred to Lessor. Subtenant shall execute and deliver, at any time and from time to time,

Lessee: Wildcats Owner LLC
Operating Affiliate: Wildcats Lessee LLC
Example A : A change in Controlling Interest of Wildcats Owner LLC.
Since Wildcats LLC is the Lessee under the Lease, a change in the Controlling Interest of Lessee is a Transfer which requires Lessor’s approval.
Example B : A change in Controlling Interest of Wildcats Lessee LLC
Wildcats Owner LLC is the Lessee under the Lease, which is directly or indirectly controlled by a REIT. Wildcats Owner LLC, as Lessee will not manage and operate the hotel, but instead will enter into a sublease with Wildcats Lessee LLC, which will enter into a hotel operating agreement with a third party Approved Operator. The third party Approved Operator will manage and operate the Premises. Wildcats Lessee LLC is a wholly-owned affiliate controlled directly or indirectly by the REIT (an Operating Affiliate), therefore a change in the Controlling Interest of Wildcats Lessee LLC shall require Lessor’s approval.

- 46 -


 

representations and warranties contained in this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and certifying that all of the representations and warranties contained in this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, as updated pursuant to such Officer’s Certificate, are true, accurate and complete as of the date of such Officer’s Certificate or shall set forth the exceptions to representations and/or warranties in reasonable detail, as applicable, and, upon Lender’s request for further information with respect to such exceptions, shall provide Lender such additional information as Lender may reasonably request.

     Section 2.12. Ground Lease . (a) Borrower will comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of the Ground Lease. Borrower will not do or permit anything to be done, the doing of which, or refrain from doing anything, the omission of which, will impair or tend to impair the security of the Premises under the Ground Lease or will be grounds for declaring a forfeiture of the Ground Lease.
     (b) Borrower shall enforce the Ground Lease and will not terminate, modify, cancel, change, supplement, alter or amend the Ground Lease, or waive, excuse, condone or in any way release or discharge Ground Lessor of or from any of the material covenants and conditions to be performed or observed by Ground Lessor. Borrower does hereby bargain, sell, assign and set over to Lender, all of Borrower’s interests in the Ground Lease. The assignment of Borrower’s interest set forth in this Section 2.12(b) is an absolute, unconditional and present assignment from Borrower to Lender and not an assignment for security and the existence or exercise of Borrower’s revocable license to take all actions with respect to the Ground Lease shall not operate to subordinate this assignment to any subsequent assignment. The exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall not be deemed to make Lender a mortgagee-in-possession. So long as there is no existing or continuing Event of Default, Borrower shall have a revocable license to take all actions with respect to the Ground Lease subject to the terms of this Security Instrument. Any surrender of the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Ground Lease without the prior written consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect.
     (c) Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform any obligations of Borrower under the terms of the Ground Lease during the continuance of an Event of Default. All costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) so incurred, shall be treated as an advance secured by this Security Instrument, shall bear interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of payment by Lender until paid in full and shall be paid by Borrower to Lender during the continuance of an Event of Default within five (5) Business Days after demand. No performance by Lender of any obligations of Borrower shall constitute a waiver of any Event of Default arising by reason of Borrower’s failure to perform the same. If Lender shall make any payment or perform any act or take action in accordance with this Section 2.12(c), Lender will notify Borrower of the making of any such payment, the performance of any such act, or the taking of any such action. In any such event, subject to the rights of lessees, sublessees and other occupants under the Leases, Lender and any Person

- 47 -


 

designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action.
     (d) To the extent permitted by law, the price payable by Borrower or any other Person in the exercise of any right of redemption following foreclosure of the Property shall include all rents paid and other sums advanced by Lender on behalf of Borrower, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate.
     (e) Unless Lender shall otherwise consent, the fee title and the leasehold estate in the Premises shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of said estates either in Ground Lessor or in Borrower, or in a third party, by purchase or otherwise.
     (f) If the Ground Lessor shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice of default sent by the Ground Lessor to Borrower, as tenant under the Ground Lease, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender, in good faith in accordance with this Security Instrument, in reliance thereon.
     (g) Borrower shall exercise each individual option, if any, to extend or renew the term of the Ground Lease not less than thirty (30) days prior to the last day upon which any such option may be exercised (and in all events within five (5) days after demand by Lender made at any time within one (1) year of the last day upon which any such option may be exercised), and Borrower hereby expressly authorizes and appoints Lender its attorney-in-fact to exercise any such option in the name of and upon behalf of Borrower to so exercise such option if Borrower fails to exercise as herein required, which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest. Borrower shall give Lender notice of Borrower’s exercise of any such option to extend or renew the term of the Ground Lease within five (5) days of the exercise of any such option.
     (h) Each Space Lease hereafter made and each renewal of any existing Space Lease shall provide that, in the event of any action for the foreclosure of this Security Instrument, such Space Lease shall not terminate or be terminable by the lessee by reason of the termination of the Ground Lease unless the lessee is specifically named and joined in any such action and unless a judgment is obtained therein against the lessee.
     (i) Borrower hereby assigns, transfers and sets over to Lender all of Borrower’s claims and rights to the payment of damages arising from any rejection by the Ground Lessor of the Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code. Borrower shall notify Lender promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days) of any claim, suit, action or proceeding relating to the rejection of the Ground Lease. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to file and prosecute, to the exclusion of Borrower, any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents, in any case in respect of the Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code during the continuance of an Event of Default. Borrower may make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceedings (subject to Lender’s reasonable approval); provided, however, that Lender shall be authorized and entitled to compromise or settle any such proceeding if such compromise or settlement is made after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

- 48 -


 

Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to Lender any and all instruments reasonably required in connection with any such proceeding after request therefor by Lender. Except as set forth above, Borrower shall not adjust, compromise, settle or enter into any agreement with respect to such proceedings without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
     (j) Borrower shall not, without Lender’s prior written consent, elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated under Section 365(h)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. Any such election made without Lender’s prior written consent shall be void.
     (k) If pursuant to Section 365(h)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, Borrower seeks to offset against the rent reserved in the Ground Lease the amount of any damages caused by the non-performance by the Ground Lessor of any of the Ground Lessor’s obligations under the Ground Lease after the rejection by the Ground Lessor of the Ground Lease under the Bankruptcy Code, Borrower shall, prior to effecting such offset, notify Lender of its intention to do so, setting forth the amounts proposed to be so offset and the basis therefor. If Lender has failed to object as aforesaid within ten (10) days after notice from Borrower in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.12(k), Borrower may proceed to effect such offset in the amounts set forth in Borrower’s notice. Neither Lender’s failure to object as aforesaid nor any objection or other communication between Lender and Borrower relating to such offset shall constitute an approval of any such offset by Lender. Borrower shall indemnify and save Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, damages, losses, costs and expenses of every nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) arising from or relating to any such offset by Borrower against the rent reserved in the Ground Lease.
     (l) Borrower shall immediately, after obtaining knowledge thereof, notify Lender of any filing by or against the Ground Lessor of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code. Borrower shall thereafter forthwith give written notice of such filing to Lender, setting forth any information available to Borrower as to the date of such filing, the court in which such petition was filed, and the relief sought therein. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender following receipt any and all notices, summonses, pleadings, applications and other documents received by Borrower in connection with any such petition and any proceedings relating thereto.
     (m) If there shall be filed by or against Borrower a petition under the Bankruptcy Code, and Borrower, as the tenant under the Ground Lease, shall determine to reject the Ground Lease pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, then Borrower shall give Lender not less than ten (10) days prior notice of the date on which Borrower shall apply to the bankruptcy court for authority to reject the Ground Lease. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve upon Borrower within such 10-day period a notice stating that (i) Lender demands that Borrower assume and assign the Ground Lease to Lender pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) Lender covenants to cure or provide adequate assurance of prompt cure of all defaults and provide adequate assurance of future performance under the Ground Lease. If Lender serves upon Borrower the notice described in the preceding sentence, Borrower shall not seek to reject the Ground Lease and shall comply with the demand provided for in clause (i) of the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the notice shall have been given,

- 49 -


 

subject to the performance by Lender of the covenant provided for in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.
     (n) Effective upon the entry of an order for relief in respect of Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, Borrower hereby assigns and transfers to Lender a non-exclusive right to apply to the appropriate bankruptcy court under Section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code for an order extending the period during which the Ground Lease may be rejected or assumed.
     (o) Borrower will give Lender prompt (and in all events within five (5) Business Days) notice of any default under the Ground Lease or of the receipt by Borrower of any notice of default from Ground Lessor. Borrower will promptly (and in all events within (5) Business Days) furnish to Lender copies of all information furnished to Ground Lessor by the terms of the Ground Lease or the provisions of this Section 2.12. Borrower will deposit with Lender an exact copy of any notice, communication, plan, specification or other instrument or document received or given by Borrower in any way relating to or affecting the Ground Lease which may concern or affect the estate of Ground Lessor or Borrower thereunder in or under the Ground Lease or in the real estate thereby demised.
     (p) Upon acquisition of the fee title or any other estate, title or interest in the Premises by Borrower, this Security Instrument shall, automatically and without the necessity of execution of any other documents, attach to and cover and be a lien upon such other estate so acquired, and such other estate shall be considered as mortgaged, assigned and conveyed to Lender and the lien hereof spread to cover such estate with the same force and effect as though specifically herein mortgaged, assigned and conveyed. The provisions of this subsection shall not apply if Lender acquires title to the Premises unless Lender shall so elect.

     (c) Borrower shall notify Lender of the renewal premium of each insurance policy and, if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Lender shall be entitled to pay such amount on behalf of Borrower from the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account.

If the insurance required by this Security Instrument shall be effected by any such blanket or umbrella policies, Borrower shall furnish to Lender (i) original policies or certified copies thereof, or an original certificate of insurance together with reasonable access to the original of such policy to review such policy’s coverage of the Property, with schedules attached thereto showing the amount of the insurance provided under such policies applicable to the Property and (ii) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth (A) the number of properties covered by such policy, (B) the location by city (if available, otherwise, county) and state of the properties, (C) the average square footage of the properties, (D) a brief description of the typical construction type included in the blanket policy and (E) such other information as Lender may reasonably request.

- 54 -


 

due, in any proportion or priority as Lender, in its discretion, may elect, (ii) the repair or restoration of the Property, (iii) the cure of any Default or (iv) the reimbursement of the costs and expenses of Lender incurred pursuant to the terms hereof in connection with the recovery of the Insurance Proceeds. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to excuse Borrower from repairing or maintaining the Property as provided in this Security Instrument or restoring all damage or destruction to the Property, regardless of the sufficiency of the Insurance Proceeds, and the application or release by Lender of any Insurance Proceeds shall not cure or waive any Default or notice of Default.
     (b) In the event of the foreclosure of this Security Instrument or any other transfer of title or assignment of all or any part of the Property in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to all policies of insurance required by this Security Instrument shall inure to the benefit of the successor in interest to Borrower or the purchaser of the Property.

Any proceeds deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender in an interest-bearing account, but Lender makes no representation or warranty as to the rate or amount of interest, if any, which may accrue on such deposit and shall have no liability in connection therewith. Interest accrued, if any, on the proceeds shall be deemed to constitute a part of the proceeds for purposes of this Security Instrument. The provisions of this Section 3.03(b) shall survive the termination of this Security Instrument by foreclosure, deed in lieu thereof or otherwise as a consequence of the exercise of the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder after a Default.

     (v) In the event that Lender elects or is obligated hereunder to allow Insurance Proceeds to be used for the Work, any excess proceeds remaining after completion of such Work shall be held by Lender as additional collateral for the Loan and, if the Debt Service Coverage is 1.2:1.0 or greater for two (2) consecutive calendar quarters at any time subsequent to the completion of the Work, and a Default does not exist, shall, at the request of Borrower be disbursed to Borrower.
     (b) If any Condemnation Proceeds in accordance with Section 6.01(a), or any Insurance Proceeds in accordance with Section 3.04(a), are to be applied to the repair, restoration or rebuilding of the Property, then such proceeds shall be deposited into a segregated interest-bearing bank account at the Bank (and the interest accrued thereon shall accrue to the benefit of Borrower), which shall be an Eligible Account, held by Lender and shall be paid out from time to time to Borrower as the Work progresses (less any cost to Lender of recovering and paying

If Borrower shall fail to pay any Imposition in accordance with this Section and is not contesting or causing a contesting of such Imposition in accordance with Section 4.04 hereof, or if there are insufficient funds in the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account to pay any Imposition, Lender shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to pay that Imposition, and Borrower shall repay to Lender, on demand, any amount paid by Lender, with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of the advance thereof to the date of repayment, and such amount shall constitute a portion of the Debt secured by this Security Instrument.

Borrower shall have no right of withdrawal in respect of the Central Account, the Rent Account or the Escrow Accounts, except to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement, including without limitation as provided for in Section 5.01. Each transfer of funds to be made hereunder shall be made only to the extent that funds are on deposit in the Rent Account, the Central Account or the affected Sub-Account or Escrow Account, and Lender shall have no responsibility to make additional funds available in the event that funds on deposit are insufficient. The Central Account shall contain the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account, the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, the Management Fee Sub-Account and the Operations and Maintenance Expense Sub-Account, each of which accounts shall be Eligible Accounts or book-entry sub-accounts of an Eligible Account (each a “ Sub-Account ” and collectively, the “ Sub-Accounts ”) to which certain funds shall be allocated and from which disbursements shall be

     (iii) third, to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Required Debt Service Payment for such Payment Date has been allocated to the Debt Service Payment Sub-Account;

     (v) fifth, the balance, if any, to the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account, until an amount equal to the Recurring Replacement Reserve Monthly Installment for such Payment Date has been allocated to the Recurring Replacement Reserve Sub-Account.

- 65 -


 

Interest Accrual Period and any periods prior thereto, shall be disbursed by Lender to Borrower on each Payment Date applicable to such Interest Accrual Period.

Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with bills and all other documents necessary, as reasonably determined by Lender, for the payment of the Basic Carrying Costs which are the subject of such request. Borrower’s obligation to pay (or cause Lender to pay) Basic Carrying Costs pursuant to this Security Instrument shall include, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Impositions resulting from future changes in law which impose upon Lender an obligation to pay any property taxes or other Impositions or which otherwise adversely affect Lender’s interests.

     Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all funds deposited into the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account shall be held by Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Security Instrument and shall be applied in payment of Basic Carrying Costs in accordance with the terms hereof. Should an Event of Default occur and be continuing, the sums on deposit in the Basic Carrying Costs Sub-Account and the Basic Carrying Costs Escrow Account may be applied by Lender in payment of any Basic Carrying Costs or may be applied to the payment of the Debt (subject to any obligations of Lender pursuant to Section 5.05 hereof) or any other charges affecting all or any portion of the Property as Lender in its sole discretion may determine; provided, however, that no such application shall be deemed to have been made by operation of law or otherwise until actually made by Lender as herein provided.

Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain the proceeds of any such Taking as to which Borrower is or may be entitled and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceedings (subject to Borrower’s reasonable approval, except after the occurrence of an Event of Default, in which event Borrower’s approval shall not be required), subject to the provisions of this Security Instrument; provided, however, that Borrower may participate in any such proceedings (without regard to the extent of the Taking) and Borrower shall be authorized and entitled to compromise or settle any such proceeding with respect to Condemnation Proceeds in an amount less than five percent (5%) of the Loan Amount. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender any and all instruments reasonably required in connection with any such proceeding promptly after request therefor by Lender. Except as set forth above, Borrower shall not adjust, compromise, settle or enter into any agreement with respect to such proceedings without the prior consent of Lender. All Condemnation Proceeds are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender to be applied in accordance with the terms hereof. With respect to Condemnation Proceeds in an amount in excess of five percent (5%) of the Loan Amount, Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to compromise, settle, collect and receive such Condemnation Proceeds, and to give proper receipts and acquittance therefor. Subject to the provisions of this Article VI, Lender may apply such Condemnation Proceeds (less any cost to Lender of recovering and paying out such proceeds, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and costs allocable to inspecting any repair, restoration or rebuilding work and the plans and specifications therefor) toward the payment of the Debt or to allow such proceeds to be used for the Work.
     (b) “ Substantial Taking ” shall mean (i) a Taking of such portion of the Property that would, in Lender’s reasonable discretion, leave remaining a balance of the Property which would not under then current economic conditions, applicable Development Laws and other applicable Legal Requirements, permit the restoration of the Property so as to constitute a complete, rentable facility of the same type as existed prior to the Taking, having adequate ingress and egress to the Property, capable of producing a projected Net Operating Income (as reasonably determined by Lender) yielding a projected Debt Service Coverage therefrom for the next two (2) years of not less than the Required Debt Service Coverage, or (ii) a Taking which occurs less

- 71 -


 

than two (2) years prior to the Maturity Date, or (iii) a Taking which Lender is not reasonably satisfied could be repaired within twelve (12) months and at least six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, or (iv) a Taking of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the Premises.
     (c) In the case of a Substantial Taking, Condemnation Proceeds shall be payable to Lender in reduction of the Debt but without any prepayment fee or charge of any kind and, if Borrower elects to apply any Condemnation Proceeds it may receive pursuant to this Security Instrument to the payment of the Debt, Borrower may prepay the balance of the Debt without any prepayment fee or charge of any kind.
     (d) In the event of a Taking which is less than a Substantial Taking, Borrower at its sole cost and expense (whether or not the award shall have been received or shall be sufficient for restoration) shall proceed diligently to restore, or cause the restoration of, the remaining Improvements not so taken, to maintain a complete, rentable, self-contained fully operational facility of the same sort as existed prior to the Taking in as good a condition as is reasonably possible. In the event of such a Taking, Lender shall receive the Condemnation Proceeds and shall pay over the same:
     (i) first, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to Borrower to the extent of any portion of the award as may be necessary to pay the reasonable cost of restoration of the Improvements remaining, and
     (ii) second, to Lender to be held as additional collateral for the Loan and, if the Debt Service Coverage is 1.2:1.0 or greater for two (2) consecutive calendar quarters at any time subsequent to the completion of the Work, and a Default does not exist, shall, at the request of Borrower be disbursed to Borrower.
     If one or more Takings in the aggregate create a Substantial Taking, then, in such event, the sections of this Article VI above applicable to Substantial Takings shall apply.
     (e) In the event Lender is obligated to or elects to make Condemnation Proceeds available for the restoration or rebuilding of the Property, such proceeds shall be disbursed in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.04(b) hereof. If, in accordance with this Article VI, any Condemnation Proceeds are used to reduce the Debt, they shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of the Note and, with no prepayment fee or charge of any kind. Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver all instruments requested by Lender for the purpose of confirming the assignment of the Condemnation Proceeds to Lender. Application of all or any part of the Condemnation Proceeds to the Debt shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 3.07 hereof. No application of the Condemnation Proceeds to the reduction of the Debt shall have the effect of releasing the lien of this Security Instrument until the remainder of the Debt has been paid in full. In the case of any Taking, Lender, to the extent that Lender has not been reimbursed by Borrower, shall be entitled, as a first priority out of any Condemnation Proceeds, to reimbursement for all costs, fees and expenses reasonably incurred in the determination and collection of any Condemnation Proceeds. All Condemnation Proceeds deposited with Lender pursuant to this Section, until expended or applied as provided herein, shall be held in accordance with Section 3.04(b) hereof and shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Debt and the payment and performance of Borrower’s obligations, but

- 72 -


 

Lender shall not be deemed a trustee or other fiduciary with respect to its receipt of such Condemnation Proceeds or any part thereof. All awards so deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender in an Eligible Account, but Lender makes no representation or warranty as to the rate or amount of interest, if any, which may accrue on any such deposit and shall have no liability in connection therewith. For purposes hereof, any reference to the award shall be deemed to include interest, if any, which has accrued thereon.
ARTICLE VII: LEASES AND RENTS
     Section 7.01. Assignment . (a) Borrower does hereby bargain, sell, assign and set over unto Lender, all of Borrower’s interest in the Leases and Rents pursuant to the terms hereof. The assignment of Leases and Rents in this Section 7.01 is an absolute, unconditional and present assignment from Borrower to Lender and not an assignment for security and the existence or exercise of Borrower’s revocable license to collect Rent shall not operate to subordinate this assignment to any subsequent assignment. The exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall not be deemed to make Lender a mortgagee-in-possession. In addition to the provisions of this Article VII, Borrower shall comply with all terms, provisions and conditions of the Assignment.
     (b) So long as no Event of Default exists or is continuing, Borrower shall have a revocable license to take all actions with respect to all Leases and Rents, present and future, including the right to collect and use the Rents, subject to the terms of this Security Instrument and the Assignment.
     (c) In a separate instrument Borrower shall, as requested from time to time by Lender, assign to Lender or its nominee by specific or general assignment, any and all Leases, such assignments to be in form and content reasonably acceptable to Lender, but subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01(a) and (b) hereof. Borrower agrees to deliver to Lender, within thirty (30) days after Lender’s request, a true and complete copy of every Lease.
     (d) The rights of Lender contained in this Article VII, the Assignment or any other assignment of any Lease shall not result in any obligation or liability of Lender to Borrower or any lessee under a Lease or any party claiming through any such lessee.
     (e) At any time during the continuation of an Event of Default, the license granted hereinabove may be revoked by Lender, and Lender or a receiver appointed in accordance with this Security Instrument may enter upon the Property, and collect, retain and apply the Rents toward payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
     (f) In addition to the rights which Lender may have herein, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender, at its option, may require Borrower to pay monthly in advance to Lender, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of such part of the Property as may be used and occupied by Borrower and may require Borrower to vacate and surrender possession of the Property to Lender or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Borrower may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.

     (d) If requested by Lender, Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause the applicable lessee to furnish, to Lender financial data and/or financial statements in accordance with Regulation AB for any lessee of the Property if, in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects there to be, with respect to such lessee or any group of affiliated lessees, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in such Securitization such that such lessee or group of affiliated lessees would constitute a Significant Obligor; provided, however, that in the event the related Space Lease does not require the related lessee to provide the foregoing information, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable lessee to furnish such information.
     (e) Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that (i) the Property will be managed at all times by Manager pursuant to the management agreement approved by Lender, which management agreement at present is that certain Hotel Operating Agreement between Kimpton Hotel & Restaurant Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ Kimpton ”), as “ Operator ” and Borrower dated as of June 14, 2001, as the same may have been amended, modified or supplemented from time to time with the consent of Lender (the “ Management Agreement ”), (ii) after Borrower has knowledge of a fifty percent (50%) or more change in control of the ownership of Manager, Borrower will promptly give Lender notice thereof (a “ Manager Control Notice ”) and (iii) the Management Agreement may be terminated by Lender if Borrower has the right to terminate pursuant to the provisions of the Management Agreement (as a result of Manager’s gross negligence, misappropriation of funds, willful misconduct or fraud) or at any time following (A) the earlier to occur of (i) the later to occur of (a) sixty (60) days after the occurrence of an Event of Default of which Manager has been given notice or (b) from and after the occurrence of a Securitization, thirty (30) days following the transfer of the Loan to “special servicing” as provided in the pooling and servicing agreement, trust and servicing agreement or similar agreement entered into in connection with a Securitization and (ii) transfer of title to the Property by foreclosure or delivery of a deed in lieu thereof, or (B) the receipt of a Manager Control Notice (except to the extent the same would be an Approved Manager Transfer) and a substitute managing agent shall be appointed by Borrower, subject to Lender’s prior written approval, which may not be unreasonably withheld and which may be conditioned on, inter alia, a letter from each Rating Agency confirming that any rating issued by the Rating Agency in connection with a Securitization will not, as a result of the proposed change of Manager, be downgraded from the then current ratings thereof, qualified or withdrawn.

Any Indemnified Party will give Borrower prompt notice after such Indemnified Party obtains actual knowledge of any potential claim by such Indemnified Party for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Parties shall not settle or compromise any action, proceeding or claim as to which it is indemnified hereunder without notice to Borrower.

Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Legal Requirements, any defense Borrower might otherwise raise or have by the failure to make any tenants parties defendant to a foreclosure proceeding and to foreclose their rights in any proceeding instituted by Lender or Trustee.
     (b) Any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default Trustee, at the request of Lender, shall have the power to sell the Property or any part thereof at public auction, in such manner, at such time and place, upon such terms and conditions, and upon such public notice as Lender may deem best for the interest of Lender, or as may be required or permitted by applicable law, consisting of advertisement in a newspaper of general circulation in the jurisdiction and for such period as applicable law may require and at such other times and by such other methods, if any, as may be required by law to convey the Property by Lender’s assignment of ground lease with special warranty of title, to and at the cost of the purchaser, who shall not be liable to see to the application of the purchase money. The proceeds or avails of any sale made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02, together with any other sums which then may be held by Lender under this Security Instrument, whether under the provisions of this Section 13.02 or otherwise, shall be applied as follows:
      First : To the payment of the third-party costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any such sale and to advances, fees and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of Lender’s and Trustee’s legal counsel as applicable, and of any judicial proceedings wherein the same may be made, and of all expenses, liabilities and advances reasonably made or incurred by Lender or Trustee under this Security Instrument, together with interest as provided herein on all such advances made by Lender, and all Impositions, except any Impositions or other charges subject to which the Property shall have been sold;

      Third : To the payment of any other portion of the Debt required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to any provision of this Security Instrument, the Note, or any of the other Loan Documents; and

- 87 -

     Lender and any receiver or custodian of the Property or any part thereof shall be liable to account for only those rents, issues, proceeds and profits actually received by it.
     (c) Lender or Trustee, as applicable, may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made under or by virtue of this Security Instrument by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of Legal Requirements, Lender or Trustee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.
     (d) Upon the completion of any sale or sales made by Lender or Trustee under or by virtue of this Section 13.02, Lender or Trustee, as applicable, or any officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, granting, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the property and rights so sold and for that purpose Lender may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute one or more Persons with like power, Borrower hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney-in-fact or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, Borrower, if so requested by Lender, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Lender, or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the sole judgement of Lender, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request. Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the property and rights so sold, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted under Legal Requirements, be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity against Borrower and against any and all Persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, from, through or under Borrower.
     (e) In the event of any sale made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), the entire Debt immediately thereupon shall, anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, become due and payable.
     (f) Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Section 13.02 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Lender may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Debt the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action.

- 88 -


 

     (g) No recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or any part thereof or upon any other property of Borrower shall release the lien of this Security Instrument upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Lender hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Lender shall continue unimpaired until all amounts due under the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents are paid in full.
     (h) Upon the exercise by Lender of any power, right, privilege, or remedy pursuant to this Security Instrument which requires any consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization of any Governmental Authority (including, if applicable, Ground Lessor), Borrower agrees to execute and deliver, or will cause the execution and delivery of, all applications, certificates, instruments, assignments and other documents and papers that Lender or any purchaser of the Property may be required to obtain for such governmental consent, approval, registration, qualification, or authorization and Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead, to execute all such applications, certificates, instruments, assignments and other documents and papers.
     (i) Nothing contained in this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document shall waive any defense by Borrower that Lender and/or Trustee has failed to comply with the terms of this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
     Section 13.03. Payment of Debt After Default . If, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt in whole or in part at any time prior to a foreclosure sale of the Property, and if at the time of such tender prepayment of the principal balance of the Note is not permitted by the Note or this Security Instrument, Borrower shall, in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender a sum equal to (a) all accrued interest on the Note and all other fees, charges and sums due and payable hereunder, (b) all costs and expenses in connection with the enforcement of Lender’s rights hereunder, and (c) a prepayment charge (the “ Prepayment Charge ”) equal to the greater of (i) 2% of the Principal Amount and (ii) the present value of a series of payments each equal to the Payment Differential (as hereinafter defined) and payable on each Payment Date over the remaining original term of the Note and on the Payment Date occurring two months prior to the Maturity Date, discounted at the Reinvestment Yield (as hereinafter defined) for the number of months remaining as of the date of such prepayment to each such Payment Date and the Payment Date occurring two months prior to the Maturity Date. The term “ Payment Differential ” shall mean an amount equal to (i) the Interest Rate less the Reinvestment Yield, divided by (ii) twelve (12) and multiplied by (iii) the Principal Amount after application of the constant monthly payment due under the Note on the date of such prepayment, provided that the Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero. The term “ Reinvestment Yield ” shall mean an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a maturity date closest to the Payment Date occurring two months prior to the Maturity Date, or (ii) the yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a term equal to the remaining average life of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, with each such yield being based on the bid price for such issue as published in the Wall Street Journal on the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the date of such prepayment set forth in the notice of prepayment (or, if such bid price is not published on that date, the next preceding date on which such bid price is so

- 89 -


 

published) and converted to a monthly compounded nominal yield. In addition to the amounts described above, if, during the first (1st) Loan Year, Borrower shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt in whole or in part following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall, in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender a sum equal to three percent (3%) of the Principal Amount. Failure of Lender to require any of these payments shall not constitute a waiver of the right to require the same in the event of any subsequent default or to exercise any other remedy available to Lender hereunder, under any other Loan Document or at law or in equity. In the event that any prepayment charge is due hereunder, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a statement setting forth the amount and determination of the prepayment fee, and, provided that Lender shall have in good faith applied the formula described above, Borrower shall not have the right to challenge the calculation or the method of calculation set forth in any such statement in the absence of manifest error, which calculation may be made by Lender on any day during the fifteen (15) day period preceding the date of such prepayment. Lender shall not be obligated or required to have actually reinvested the prepaid principal balance at the Reinvestment Yield or otherwise as a condition to receiving the prepayment charge. If at the time of such tender, prepayment of the principal balance of the Note is permitted, such tender by Borrower shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment of the principal balance of the Note, and Borrower shall, in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender the applicable prepayment consideration specified in the Note and this Security Instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to Section 15.01, the Loan may be prepaid at any time in accordance with said Section 15.01 and that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the only prepayment charge due pursuant to this Section 13.03 will be as set forth in Section 15.01.
     Section 13.04. Possession of the Property . Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and the acceleration of the Debt or any portion thereof, Borrower, if an occupant of the Property or any part thereof, upon demand of Lender, shall immediately surrender possession of the Property (or the portion thereof so occupied) to Lender, and if Borrower is permitted to remain in possession, the possession shall be as a month-to-month tenant of Lender and, on demand, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly, in advance, a reasonable rental for the space so occupied and in default thereof Borrower may be dispossessed. The covenants herein contained may be enforced by a receiver of the Property or any part thereof. Nothing in this Section 13.04 shall be deemed to be a waiver of the provisions of this Security Instrument making the Transfer of the Property or any part thereof without Lender’s prior written consent an Event of Default.
     Section 13.05. Interest After Default . If any amount due under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents is not paid within any applicable notice and grace period after same is due, whether such date is the stated due date, any accelerated due date or any other date or at any other time specified under any of the terms hereof or thereof, then, in such event, Borrower shall pay interest on the amount not so paid from and after the date on which such amount first becomes due at the Default Rate; and such interest shall be due and payable at such rate until the earlier of the cure of all Events of Default or the payment of the entire amount due to Lender, whether or not any action shall have been taken or proceeding commenced to recover the same or to foreclose this Security Instrument. All unpaid and accrued interest shall be secured by this Security Instrument as part of the Debt. Nothing in this Section

- 90 -


 

13.05 or in any other provision of this Security Instrument shall constitute an extension of the time for payment of the Debt.
     Section 13.06. Borrower’s Actions After Default . After the happening of any Event of Default and immediately upon the commencement of any action, suit or other legal proceedings by Lender to obtain judgment for the Debt, or of any other nature in aid of the enforcement of the Loan Documents, Borrower will (a) after receipt of notice of the institution of any such action, waive the issuance and service of process and enter its voluntary appearance in such action, suit or proceeding, and (b) if required by Lender, consent to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Property or any part thereof and of all the earnings, revenues, rents, issues, profits and income thereof.
     Section 13.07. Control by Lender After Default . Notwithstanding the appointment during the continuance of an Event of Default of any custodian, receiver, liquidator or trustee of Borrower, or of any of its property, or of the Property or any part thereof, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, Lender shall be entitled to obtain possession and control of all property now and hereafter covered by this Security Instrument and the Assignment in accordance with the terms hereof.
     Section 13.08. Right to Cure Defaults . (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender or its agents may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender and its agents are authorized to enter upon the Property or any part thereof for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceedings to protect Lender’s interest in the Property or any part thereof or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 13.08, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be immediately due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents in remedying such Event of Default or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period from the date so demanded to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents together with interest thereon calculated at the above rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument.
     (b) If Lender makes any payment or advance that Lender is authorized by this Security Instrument to make in the place and stead of Borrower (i) relating to the Impositions or tax liens asserted against the Property, Lender may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office without inquiry into the accuracy of the bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any of the Impositions or the tax liens or claims thereof; (ii) relating to any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien, claim of lien, encumbrance, claim or charge, Lender will be the sole judge of the legality or validity of same; or (iii) relating to any other purpose authorized by this Security Instrument but not enumerated in this Section 13.08, Lender may do so whenever, in its judgment and discretion, the payment or advance seems necessary or desirable to protect the Property and the full security interest intended to be created by this Security Instrument. In connection with any payment or advance made pursuant

- 91 -


 

to this Section 13.08, Lender has the option and is authorized, but in no event shall be obligated, to obtain a continuation report of title prepared by a title insurance company. The payments and the advances made by Lender pursuant to this Section 13.08 and the cost and expenses of said title report will be due and payable by Borrower on demand, together with interest at the Default Rate, and will be secured by this Security Instrument.

If any portion of the Debt is not paid in full on or before the day on which it is due and payable hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such unpaid portion of the Debt (“ Late Charge ”) to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment, and such amount shall constitute a part of the Debt.
     Section 13.10. Recovery of Sums Required to Be Paid . Lender shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due and payable hereunder (after the expiration of any grace period or the giving of any notice herein provided, if any), without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
     Section 13.11. Marshalling and Other Matters . Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement, redemption (both equitable and statutory) and homestead laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale hereunder of the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Borrower hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of this Security Instrument on behalf of Borrower, whether equitable or statutory and on behalf of each and every Person acquiring any interest in or title to the Property or any part thereof subsequent to the date of this Security Instrument and on behalf of all Persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
     Section 13.12. Tax Reduction Proceedings . During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall be deemed to have appointed Lender as its attorney-in-fact to seek a reduction or reductions in the assessed valuation of the Property for real property tax purposes or for any other purpose and to prosecute any action or proceeding in connection therewith. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for so long as any part of the Debt remains unpaid and any Event of Default shall be continuing.
     Section 13.13. General Provisions Regarding Remedies . (a) Right to Terminate Proceedings . Lender or Trustee may terminate or rescind any proceeding or other action brought in connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in Section 13.02 at any time before the conclusion thereof, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion and without prejudice to Lender or Trustee.
     (b)  No Waiver or Release . The failure of Lender or Trustee to exercise any right, remedy or option provided in the Loan Documents shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or option or of any covenant or obligation contained in the Loan Documents. No acceptance by Lender of any payment after the occurrence of an Event of Default and no

- 92 -


 

payment by Lender of any payment or obligation for which Borrower is liable hereunder shall be deemed to waive or cure any Event of Default. No sale of all or any portion of the Property, no forbearance on the part of Lender, and no extension of time for the payment of the whole or any portion of the Debt or any other indulgence given by Lender to Borrower or any other Person, shall operate to release or in any manner affect the interest of Lender in the Property or the liability of Borrower to pay the Debt. No waiver by Lender shall be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent specifically stated.
     (c)  No Impairment; No Releases .

     Section 18.13. Applicable Law . THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE AND ANY APPLICABLE LAW OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
     Section 18.14. Security Agreement . (a) (i) This Security Instrument is both a real property mortgage, deed to secure debt or deed of trust, as applicable, and a “security agreement” within the meaning of the UCC. The Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in the Property. This Security Instrument is filed as a fixture filing and covers goods which are or are to become fixtures on the Property. Borrower by executing and delivering this Security Instrument has granted to Lender, as security for the Debt, a security interest in the Property to the full extent that the Property may be subject to the UCC (said portion of the Property so subject to the UCC being called in this Section 18.14 the “ Collateral ”). If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the UCC, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting its interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral. Any disposition pursuant to the UCC of so much of the Collateral as may constitute personal property shall be considered commercially reasonable if made pursuant to a public sale which is advertised at least twice in a newspaper in which sheriff’s sales are advertised in the county where the Premises is located. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Collateral given to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such action, shall constitute reasonable notice to Borrower. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper. It is not necessary that the Collateral be present at any disposition thereof. Lender shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition.
     (ii) The mention in a financing statement filed in the records normally pertaining to personal property of any portion of the Property shall not derogate from or impair in any manner the intention of this Security Instrument. Lender hereby declares that all items of Collateral are part of the real property encumbered hereby to the fullest extent permitted by law, regardless of whether any such item is physically attached to the Improvements or whether serial numbers are used for the better identification of certain items. Specifically, the mention in any such financing statement of any items included in the Property shall not be construed to alter, impair or impugn any rights of Lender as determined by this Security Instrument or the priority of Lender’s lien upon and security interest in the Property in the event that notice of Lender’s priority of interest as to any portion of the Property is required to be filed in accordance with the UCC to be effective

- 101 -


 

against or take priority over the interest of any particular class of persons, including the federal government or any subdivision or instrumentality thereof. No portion of the Collateral constitutes or is the proceeds of “ Farm Products ”, as defined in the UCC.

obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, such rate of interest shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note. No application to the principal balance of the Note pursuant to this Section 18.16 shall give rise to any requirement to pay any prepayment fee or charge of any kind due hereunder, if any.
     Section 18.17. Remedies of Borrower . In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender has acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under the Note, this Security Instrument or the Loan Documents, it has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Lender shall not be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s remedies shall be limited to injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

     Section 18.19. No Merger . If Borrower’s and Lender’s estates become the same including, without limitation, upon the delivery of a deed by Borrower in lieu of a foreclosure sale, or upon a purchase of the Property by Lender in a foreclosure sale, this Security Instrument and the lien created hereby shall not be destroyed or terminated by the application of the doctrine of merger and in such event Lender shall continue to have and enjoy all of the rights and privileges of Lender as to the separate estates; and, as a consequence thereof, upon the foreclosure of the lien created by this Security Instrument, any Leases or subleases then existing and created by Borrower shall not be destroyed or terminated by application of the law of merger or as a result of such foreclosure unless Lender or any purchaser at any such foreclosure sale shall so elect. No act by or on behalf of Lender or any such purchaser shall constitute a termination of any Lease or sublease unless Lender or such purchaser shall give written notice thereof to such lessee or sublessee.
     Section 18.20. Restoration of Rights . In case Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Security Instrument by foreclosure sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely, then, in every such case, Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Property subject to the lien hereof.

Likewise, the execution of this Security Instrument shall not impair or affect any other security which may be given to secure the payment of the Debt, and all such additional security shall be considered as cumulative. The taking of additional security, execution of partial releases of the security, or any extension of time of payment of the Debt shall not diminish the force, effect or lien of this Security Instrument and shall not affect or impair the liability of Borrower and shall not affect or impair the liability of any maker, surety, or endorser for the payment of the Debt.
     Section 18.23. Application of Default Rate Not a Waiver . Application of the Default Rate shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or any rights or remedies of Lender under this Security Instrument, any other Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements, or a consent to any extension of time for the payment or performance of any obligation with respect to which the Default Rate may be invoked.
     Section 18.24. Intervening Lien . To the fullest extent permitted by law, any agreement hereafter made pursuant to this Security Instrument shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any intervening lien.

Borrower’s failure to deliver the opinions required hereby within such ten (10) Business Day period shall constitute an “ Event of Default ” hereunder. The cost of any “bringdown” opinion of any legal opinion given in connection with the origination of the Loan will be paid by Borrower. The reasonable cost of any other opinion requested by Lender and/or any Rating Agency will be paid by Lender.

The security for the mezzanine loan(s) shall be a pledge of one hundred percent (100%) of the direct and indirect ownership interests in the mortgage borrower.
     (d) Borrower shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to convert the Loan into a mortgage loan and one or more mezzanine loans and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the delivery of non-consolidation, enforceability, authorization and execution opinions and an “Eagle 9” or “UCC plus” (or equivalent) UCC insurance policy and

Borrower shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Lender in order to establish the “component” notes and shall execute and deliver such documents as shall reasonably be required by Lender in connection therewith, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender, including, without limitation, the severance of security documents if requested. It shall be an Event of Default if Borrower fails to comply with any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Section 18.36 after the expiration of ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof.

     (ii) Rescission of Notice of Default . Lender may rescind any notice of default at any time before Trustee’s sale by executing a notice of rescission and recording it. The

- 111 -


 

recordation of the notice will constitute a cancellation of any prior declaration of an Event of Default and demand for sale and of any acceleration of maturity of the Debt affected by any prior declaration or notice of an Event of Default. The exercise by Lender of the right of rescission will not constitute a waiver of any default then existing or subsequently occurring, or impair the right of Lender to execute other declarations of default and demand for sale, or notices of default and of election to cause the Property to be sold, nor otherwise affect the Note or this Security Instrument, or any of the rights, obligations or remedies of Lender or Trustee hereunder or under applicable law.
     (iii) Date of Trustee’s Sale . If, after the expiration of any period of time provided by applicable law, Borrower’s Event of Default has not been cured and Borrower’s Debt has not been reinstated in the manner required by applicable law, Trustee shall establish a date for the sale of the Property and record and serve a notice of sale in the manner required by applicable law.
     (iv) Trustee’s Sale . If, on or before the date scheduled for the sale of the Property, Borrower’s Event of Default has not been cured and the Debt has not been reinstated, Trustee, without demand on Borrower, shall sell the Property at the time and place fixed by Trustee in the notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such order as Trustee may determine, at public auction, and to any Person, including Borrower, Lender or Trustee. The Property shall be sold to the highest bidder for cash payable at the time of sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instead of paying cash for the Property, Lender may credit the amount of its auction sale bid by the amount of the Debt, or any fraction thereof, including, without limitation, Trustee’s cost and expenses from the sale of the Property. Lender will be entitled to bid, at any trustee’s or foreclosure sale of the Property, the amount of the Environmental Damages (as hereinafter defined), any costs incurred by Lender with respect to any Environmental Problem and interest in addition to the amount of other Debt as a credit bid, the equivalent of cash. Furthermore, if a bid has been made by Lender in the amount of the Debt, other than Debt for Environmental Damages and any costs incurred by Lender with respect to any Environmental Problem incurred by Lender, any Debt comprised of the Environmental Damages and any costs incurred by Lender with respect to any Environmental Problem shall not be discharged by virtue of the full credit bid and shall remain an obligation of Borrower to be satisfied under this Security Instrument.
     (v) Delivery of Deed . Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser of the Property a deed which conveys title to the Property without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of their truthfulness.
     (vi) Postponement of Trustee’s Sale . Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Property in accordance with California Civil Code §2924g, by public announcement at the time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter Trustee may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement or as otherwise allowed by said statute.

- 112 -


 

     (vii) Application of Sale Proceeds . The proceeds of Trustee’s public auction of the Property shall be applied in the following manner: (1) payment of the portion of the Debt attributable to the costs and expenses of the sale; (2) repayment of the portion of the Debt attributable to any sums expended or advanced by Lender (other than the Environmental Damages and costs incurred by Lender with respect to any Environmental Problem) under the terms of this Security Instrument, plus interest at the Default Rate; (3) payment of all other Debt and all other obligations of Borrower secured by this Security Instrument, in any order that Lender chooses; (4) repayment of the portion of the Debt attributable to the Environmental Damages and costs incurred by Lender with respect to any Environmental Problem under the terms of this Security Instrument, plus interest at the Default Rate; and (5) the remainder, if any, to satisfy the outstanding balance of obligations secured by any junior encumbrances in the order of their priority, then to Borrower or Borrower’s successor in interest.
     (viii) Proof of Compliance with the Law . If there is a sale of the Property, or any part of it, and the execution of a deed for it, the recital of default and of recording notice of breach and election of sale, and of the elapsing of the required time between the recording and the following notice, and of the sale should be made, will be conclusive proof of the default, recording, election, elapsing of time, and the due giving of notice, and that the sale was regularly and validly made on proper demand by Lender. Any deed with these recitals will be effectual and conclusive against Borrower, its successors, and assigns, and all other Persons. The receipt for the purchase money recited or in any deed executed to the purchaser will be sufficient discharge to the purchaser from all obligations to see to the proper application of the purchase money.
     (b)  Acceptance by Trustee . Trustee accepts this trust when this Security Instrument, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law. Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under any other deed of trust or of any action or proceeding in which Borrower, Lender or Trustee shall be a party unless brought by Trustee.
     (c)  Rights and Duties . It shall be no part of the duty of Trustee to see to any recording, filing or registration of this Security Instrument or any other instrument in addition or supplemental hereto, or to give any notice thereof, or to see to the payment of or be under any duty in respect of any tax or assessment or other governmental charge which may be levied or assessed on the Property, or any part thereof, or against Trustee, or to see to the performance or observance by Borrower of any of the covenants and agreements contained herein. Trustee shall not be responsible for the execution, acknowledgement or validity of this Security Instrument or of any instrument in addition or supplemental hereto or for the sufficiency of the security purported to be created hereby, and makes no representation in respect thereof or in respect of the rights of Lender. Trustee shall have the right to advice of counsel upon any matters arising hereunder and shall be fully protected in relying as to legal matters on the advice of counsel. Trustee shall not incur any personal liability hereunder except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct and Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by Trustee hereunder and believed by Trustee in good faith to be genuine.

- 113 -


 

     (d)  Subrogation to Existing Liens; Vendor’s Lien . To the extent that proceeds of the Note are used to pay Debt secured by any outstanding lien, security interest, charge or prior encumbrance against the Property, such proceeds have been advanced by Lender at Trustee’s request, and Lender shall be subrogated to any and all rights, security interests and liens owned by any owner or holder of such outstanding liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances, however remote, irrespective of whether said liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances are released, and all of the same are recognized as valid and subsisting and are renewed and continued and merged herein to secure the Debt, but the terms and provisions of this Security Instrument shall govern and control the manner and terms of enforcement of the liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances to which Lender is subrogated hereunder. It is expressly understood that, in consideration of the payment of such indebtedness by Lender, Borrower hereby waives and releases all demands and causes of action for offsets and payments in connection with the said indebtedness. If all or any portion of the proceeds of the loan evidenced by the Note or of any other secured indebtedness has been advanced for the purpose of paying the purchase price for all or a part of the Property, no vendor’s lien is waived; and Lender shall have, and is hereby granted, a vendor’s lien on the Property as cumulative additional security for the secured indebtedness. Lender may foreclose under this Security Instrument or under the vendor’s lien without waiving the other or may foreclose under both.
     (e)  Substitute Trustee . Trustee may resign by an instrument in writing addressed to Lender, or Trustee may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument in writing executed by Lender. In case of the death, resignation, removal or disqualification of Trustee, or if for any reason Lender shall deem it desirable to appoint a substitute or successor trustee to act instead of the herein named trustee or any substitute or successor trustee, then Lender shall have the right and is hereby authorized and empowered to appoint a successor trustee, or a substitute trustee, without other formality than appointment and designation in writing executed by Lender, and the authority hereby conferred shall extend to the appointment of other successor and substitute trustees successively until the Debt secured hereby has been paid in full, or until the Property is fully and finally sold hereunder. In the event that the Debt is owned by more than one person or entity, the holder or holders of not less than a majority in amount of such indebtedness shall have the right and authority to make the appointment of a successor or substitute trustee as provided for in the preceding sentence or to remove Trustee as provided in the first sentence of this Section 18.37(e). Such appointment and designation by Lender, or by the holder or holders of not less than a majority of the Debt secured hereby, shall be full evidence of the right and authority to make the same and of all facts therein recited. If Lender is a corporation or association or trust and such appointment is executed in its behalf by an officer or trustee of such corporation or association or trust, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the board of directors or any superior officer of the corporation or association or trust. Upon the making of any such appointment and designation, all of the estate and title of Trustee in the Property shall vest in the named successor or substitute trustee, and it shall thereupon succeed to and shall hold, possess and execute, all of the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon Trustee; but, nevertheless, upon the written request of Lender or of the successor or substitute trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor or substitute trustee all of the estate and title in the Property of the trustee so ceasing to act, together with all the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon the Trustee, and shall duly assign,

- 114 -


 

transfer and deliver any of the properties and moneys held by said trustee hereunder to said successor or substitute trustee. All references herein to “ Trustee ” shall be deemed to refer to Trustee (including any successor or substitute appointed and designated as herein provided) from time to time acting hereunder.
     (f)  No Liability of Trustee . TRUSTEE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY ERROR OF JUDGMENT OR ACT DONE BY TRUSTEE IN GOOD FAITH, OR BE OTHERWISE RESPONSIBLE OR ACCOUNTABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING TRUSTEE’S NEGLIGENCE), EXCEPT FOR TRUSTEE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR MISCONDUCT. Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by it hereunder, believed by it in good faith to be genuine. All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by law), and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by it hereunder. Trustee hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the herein-named Trustee or its successor or successors, substitute or substitutes, in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof.
     (g)  Judgment on Environmental Provision .
     (i) Judgment Sought . Pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure §736, Lender may bring an action (as such term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure §22) for breach of contract against Borrower for breach of any provision contained in Article XVI hereof (the “ Environmental Provision ”), for the recovery of the Environmental Damages listed in Section (ii) hereof, and for the enforcement of the Environmental Provision, whether the Environmental Provision is or was contained in or secured by this Security Instrument and whether or not this Security Instrument has been discharged, reconveyed or foreclosed upon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no injunction for the enforcement of an Environmental Provision may be issued after (x) satisfaction of the Debt or (y) transfer of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the “ Real Property Security ” (as such term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure §736(f)(4) in a bona fide transaction to an unaffiliated third party for fair value.
     (ii) Damages . The damages that Lender may recover pursuant to Section (i) above shall be limited to reimbursement or indemnification of the following (collectively, the “ Environmental Damages ”): (w) if not pursuant to an order of any Governmental Authority relating to the cleanup, remediation, or other response action required by any applicable rule promulgated by a Governmental Authority, those costs relating to a reasonable and good faith cleanup, remediation, or other response action concerning a Release (such term shall have the meaning ascribed to it under California Civil Code §2929.5 and under California Civil Code of Procedure §726.5 and §736) or threatened release of Hazardous Materials which is anticipated by the Environmental Provision; (x) if pursuant to an order of any Governmental Authority which is anticipated by the Environmental Provision, all amounts reasonably advanced in good faith by Lender in connection therewith, provided that Lender negotiated, or attempted to negotiate, in good faith to minimize the amounts it was required to advance under the order; (y)

- 115 -


 

indemnification against all liabilities of Lender to any third party relating to the breach and not arising from acts, omissions or other conduct which occur after Borrower is no longer an owner or operator of the “Real Property Security” in accordance with the standards set forth in California Code of Civil Procedure §726.5(d) (for the purposes of this Section (ii), the term “owner or operator” means those persons described in §101(20)(A) of CERCLA); and (z) attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Lender relating to the breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Environmental Damages recoverable by Lender shall not include (w) any part of the principal amount or accrued interest of the Debt, except for any amounts advanced by Lender to cure or mitigate the breach of any Environmental Provision that is added to the principal amount, and contractual interest thereon, or (x) amounts which relate to a Release which was knowingly permitted, caused or contributed to by Lender or any affiliate or agent of Lender.
     (h) Waiver of Lien . Pursuant to the terms of California Code of Civil Procedure §726.5, Lender may (i) waive its lien against (A) any parcel of “Real Property Security” that is “environmentally impaired” (as such term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure §726.5(e)(3)), or is an “affected parcel” (as such term is defined in California Code Civil Procedure §726.5(e)(1)), and (B) all or any portion of the personal property attached to such parcels and (ii) exercise (A) the rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor including reduction of its claim against Borrower to judgment and (B) any other rights and remedies permitted by law. As between Lender and Borrower, for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure §726.5, Borrower shall have the burden of proving that (1) the Release or threatened Release was not (x) knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to, or (y) knowingly or willfully permitted or acquiesced to, by Borrower or any related party (as such term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure §726.5(e)(6)), or any affiliate or agent of Borrower or any related party, and (2) in conjunction with the making, renewal or modification of the Debt, (x) neither Borrower, any related party nor any affiliate or agent of Borrower or any related party had actual knowledge or notice of the Release or threatened Release of any Hazardous Materials, or (y) if such a person had knowledge or notice of the Release or threatened Release, Borrower made written disclosure thereof to Lender after Lender’s written request for information concerning the environmental condition of the Real Property Security (provided that Lender shall be deemed to have knowledge of any matter disclosed in the Environmental Reports), or (z) Lender otherwise obtained actual knowledge thereof prior to the making, renewal or modification of the Debt.
     (i) Reconveyance Upon Payment of Debt . In the event that Borrower shall cause to be paid the entire Debt and perform in full all of its obligations under the Loan Documents, Lender shall release and shall cause Trustee to release the Property from the lien of this Security Instrument and to reconvey (without warranty by or recourse against Trustee or Lender) the Property to Borrower. Upon Trustee’s receipt of Lender’s request for reconveyance, Trustee shall reconvey, without warranty, the Property or that portion held. When the Property has been fully reconveyed, the last reconveyance will operate as a reassignment of all future Rents to the Person legally entitled.
     (j) Environmental Addendum .

- 116 -


 

     (i) Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon the Property, from time to time upon prior reasonable notice, and in its sole and absolute discretion, to conduct inspections of the Property and the activities conducted thereon to determine the compliance with all Environmental Statutes, the presence of Hazardous Materials and the existence of any potential damages as a result of the condition of the Property in the event that Lender reasonably believes that there are Hazardous Materials on the Property that are not in compliance with applicable Environmental Requirements. In furtherance thereof, Borrower hereby grants to Lender and its agents, employees and qualified consultants and contractors, the right to enter upon the Property and to perform such tests on the Property (including invasive tests) as are reasonably necessary. Lender shall conduct such inspections and tests at reasonable times, shall use its best efforts to minimize interference with the operation of the Property and agrees to restore the condition of the Property, but Lender shall not be liable for any interference caused thereby unless due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct or omission of Lender. In furtherance of the purposes above, without limitation of any of Lender’s other rights, Lender may: (x) obtain a court order to enforce Lender’s right to enter and inspect the Property under California Civil Code §2929.5, to which the reasonable, good faith decision of Lender as to whether there exists any Hazardous Materials on or about the Property in violation of any Environmental Statutes, or a breach by Borrower of any environmental provision of this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents, will be deemed reasonable and conclusive as between the parties; and (y) have a receiver be appointed under California Code of Civil Procedure §564 to enforce Lender’s right to enter and inspect the Property for the purpose set forth above.
     (ii) Borrower and Lender agree that: (x) this paragraph is intended as Lender’s written request for information and Borrower’s written response concerning the environmental condition of the Property as provided in California Code of Civil Procedure §726.5; and (y) each representation, warranty or covenant, or indemnity made by Borrower in this Security Instrument or in the other Loan Documents that relates to the environmental condition of the Property is intended by Borrower and Lender to be an “environmental provision” for the purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure §736 and will survive the payment of the Debt and the termination or expiration of this Security Instrument and will not be affected by Lender’s acquisition of any interest in the Property, whether by full credit bid at foreclosure, deed in lieu of that, or otherwise. If there is any transfer of any portion of Borrower’s interest in the Property, any successor-in-interest to Borrower agrees by its succession to that interest that the written request made pursuant to this paragraph will be deemed remade to the successor-in-interest without any further or additional action on the part of Lender and that by assuming the Debt secured by this Security Instrument or by accepting the interest of Borrower subject to the lien of this Security Instrument, the successor remakes each of the representations and warranties in this Security Instrument and agrees to be bound by each covenant in this Security Instrument, including but not limited to any indemnity provision.
     (k) Financing Statement . This Security Instrument shall also constitute a financing statement pursuant to UCC §9502, and shall be filed as a fixture filing in the Official Records of the County Recorder of the County in which the Property is located and covers goods which are or are to become fixtures on the Property.

- 117 -


 

     (l) Border Zone Property . Borrower represents and warrants that the Property has not been designated as Border Zone Property under the provisions of California Health and Safety Code §25220 et seq. or any regulation adopted in accordance therewith and there has been no occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property that is reasonably likely to cause the Property or any part thereof to be designated as Border Zone Property.
     (m) Waiver of Statutory Regulation . By initialing below, Borrower waives any right under California Civil Code §2954.10 or otherwise to prepay the Note, in whole or in part, without a Prepayment Charge (as described in Section 13.03 and Article XV hereof). Borrower acknowledges that prepayment of the Note may result in Lender’s incurring additional losses, costs, expenses, and liabilities, including, but not limited to, lost revenue and lost profits. Borrower therefore agrees to pay any prepayment charges on the terms and conditions provided herein, including, without limitation, upon any Event of Default attributable to the transfer or conveyance of any right, title, or interest in the Property to the extent the same would be due pursuant to Section 13.03 or Article XV hereof.
     BORROWER AGREES THAT LENDER’S WILLINGNESS TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE FOR THE TERM SET FORTH HEREIN CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY BORROWER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

Re:                                                                                      (the “ Company ”)
Gentlemen:
     _____________________________ (the “ Processor ”) has entered into arrangements pursuant to which Processor acts as credit card processing service provider with respect to certain credit card and debit card sales by Company and makes payments to Company in respect of such sales as set forth in the [Merchant Services Bankcard Agreement], dated _______________ between Processor and Company (and together with any replacement agreement thereto, referred to herein as the “ Card Processing Agreement ”).
     Please be advised that Company has entered or is about to enter into financing arrangements with _____________________________ (the “ Lender ”) pursuant to which Lender may from time to time make loans and advances and provide other financial accommodations to Company, secured by, among other things, all of Company’s right, title and interest in and to all deposit and other bank accounts and proceeds of the foregoing, including all amounts at any time payable by Processor to Company pursuant to the Card Processing Agreement or otherwise.
     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Card Processing Agreement or any prior instructions to Processor, unless and until Processor receives written instructions from Lender to the contrary, effective as of the day after the date of Processor’s written acknowledgement below all amounts payable by Processor to Company pursuant to the Card Processing Agreement or otherwise shall be sent by federal funds wire transfer or electronic depository transfer to the following bank account of Lender:

     In the event Processor at any time receives any other instructions from Lender with respect to the disposition of amounts payable by or through Processor to Company pursuant to the Card Processing Agreement or otherwise, Processor is hereby irrevocably authorized and directed to follow such instructions, without inquiry as to Lender’s right or authority to give such instructions. Company and Lender acknowledge that (a) any instructions from Lender to Processor to change the account to which funds must be sent by a vice president or other officer of Lender to _____________________________; (b) such instructions shall only provide for funds to be sent to a single deposit account of Lender, in a manner with respect to the nature of the funds transfer and at times consistent with the payment practices of Processor as then in effect, unless otherwise agreed by Processor. The Company agrees to hold harmless Processor for any action taken by Processor in accordance with the terms of this letter and the Card Processing Agreement; and Lender shall complete such account change forms as Processor may require. The Company hereby acknowledges that the account set forth above is owned by Company but is under the control of Lender.
     Lender and Company hereby confirm and agree as follows: (i) the Card Processing Agreement is in full force and effect and (ii) this Payment Direction Letter does not prohibit or limit any rights Processor possesses under the Card Processing Agreement, including but not limited to Processor’s right to debit, offset or charge back any amount owing to Processor under the Card Processing Agreement or any replacement or renewal thereof, against funds sent to or to be sent to the above referenced bank account.
     This Payment Direction Letter cannot be changed, modified, or terminated, except by written agreement signed by Lender, Company and Processor. Processor agrees to use reasonable efforts to ensure payment instructions are followed, but Lender and Company herein acknowledge that Processor shall incur no liability for changes or modifications wherein Processor has received instructions from Company or Lender to change deposit instructions. The terms of this Payment Direction Letter shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.
     Please acknowledge your receipt of, and agreement to, the foregoing by signing in the space provided below.

repairing or restoring such damage or destruction, or if Borrower cannot reasonably estimate the anticipated cost of restoration, Borrower shall nonetheless give Lender prompt notice of the occurrence of such damage or destruction, and will diligently proceed to obtain estimates to enable Borrower to quantify the anticipated cost and time required for such restoration, whereupon Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of such good faith estimate) and, provided that restoration does not violate any Legal Requirements, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to completion the repair, restoration or rebuilding of the Property so damaged or destroyed to a condition such that the Property shall be at least equal in value to that immediately prior to the damage to the extent practicable, in full compliance with all Legal Requirements and the provisions of all Leases, and in accordance with Section 3.04(b) below.

If Lender shall receive and retain such Insurance Proceeds, the lien of this Security Instrument shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received, after reimbursement to Lender of expenses of collection, and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the principal sum payable under the Note in accordance with the Note.

Borrower shall give each tenant under a Space Lease an irrevocable direction in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto and made a part hereof to deliver all rent payments made by tenants and other payments constituting Rent directly into the Rent Account. All payments constituting Rent, other than payments received from tenants under a Lease and payments made by credit cards, shall be delivered to Manager. Manager shall collect all of such Rent and shall deposit such funds, within three (3) Business Days after receipt thereof in the Rent Account, the name and address of the bank in which such account is located and the account number of which to be identified in writing by Manager to Lender. Borrower shall cause Manager to give to the bank in which the Rent Account is located an irrevocable written instruction, in form and substance acceptable to Lender, that, upon receipt of notice from Lender that an Event of Default exists (the “ Trigger Notice ”), all funds deposited in such account shall be automatically transferred through automated clearing house funds (“ ACH ”) or by Federal wire to the Central Account prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a daily basis. Provided that the bank in which the Rent Account is located has not received a Trigger Notice, all sums on deposit in the Rent Account shall be transferred on a daily basis to an account designated in writing by Borrower (the “Borrower Account”). Within two (2) Business Days of the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a copy of the irrevocable notice which Borrower delivered to the bank in which the Rent Account is located pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01, the receipt of which is acknowledged in writing by such bank.

Neither Borrower nor Manager shall change such bank or the Rent Account without the prior written consent of Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All fees and charges of the bank(s) in which the Rent Account and the Central Account are located shall be paid by Borrower. Promptly following the cure of any Event of Default which resulted in Lender giving a Trigger Notice, Lender shall inform the bank holding the Rent Account of the cure of such Event of Default, and at Borrower’s sole cost and expense take all such actions and execute and deliver all such documents

Together with each such request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with bills and all other documents necessary, as reasonably determined by Lender, for the payment of the Basic Carrying Costs which are the subject of such request. Borrower’s obligation to pay (or cause Lender to pay) Basic Carrying Costs pursuant to this Security Instrument shall include, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Impositions resulting from future changes in law which impose upon Lender an obligation to pay any property taxes or other Impositions or which otherwise adversely affect Lender’s interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lender receives a tax bill directly from a Governmental Authority relating to any Real Estate Taxes, Lender shall pay all sums due thereunder prior to the date such Real Estate Taxes would accrue late charges or interest thereon or within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such tax bill, whichever is later. In making any payment of Real Estate Taxes, Lender may rely on any bill, statement or estimate obtained from the applicable Governmental Authority without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any Real Estate Taxes or claim with respect thereto.

Lender and Borrower shall cause all such Insurance Proceeds to be paid by the insurer directly to the Central Account, whereupon Lender shall, after deducting Lender’s costs of recovering and paying out such Insurance Proceeds, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, apply same to reduce the Debt in accordance with the terms of the Note; provided, however, that if Lender elects, or is deemed to have elected, or is otherwise required pursuant to the terms of this Security Instrument, to make all or a portion of the Insurance Proceeds available for restoration, all Insurance Proceeds in respect of rent loss, business interruption or similar coverage shall be maintained in the Central Account, to be applied by Lender in the same manner as Rent received with respect to the operation of the Property; provided, further, however, that in the event that the Insurance Proceeds with respect to such rent loss, business interruption or similar insurance policy are paid in a lump sum in advance, Lender shall hold such Insurance Proceeds in a segregated interest-bearing escrow account, which shall be an Eligible Account, shall estimate, in Lender’s reasonable discretion, the number of months required for Borrower to restore the damage caused by the casualty, shall divide the aggregate rent loss, business interruption or similar Insurance Proceeds by such number of months, and shall disburse from such bank account into the Central

ARTICLE VI: CONDEMNATION
  71
 
   
Section 6.01. Condemnation. (a) Borrower shall notify Lender promptly of the commencement or threat of any Taking of the Property or any portion thereof. Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain the proceeds of any such Taking as to which Borrower is or may be entitled and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceedings (subject to Borrower’s reasonable approval, except after the occurrence of an Event of Default, in which event Borrower’s approval shall not be required), subject to the provisions of this Security Instrument; provided, however, that Borrower may participate in any such proceedings (without regard to the extent of the Taking) and Borrower shall be authorized and entitled to compromise or settle any such proceeding with respect to Condemnation Proceeds in an amount less than five percent (5%) of the Loan Amount. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender any and all instruments reasonably required in connection with any such proceeding promptly after request therefor by Lender. Except as set forth above, Borrower shall not adjust, compromise, settle or enter into any agreement with respect to such proceedings without the prior consent of Lender.

Section 7.01. Assignment. (a) Borrower does hereby bargain, sell, assign and set over unto Lender, all of Borrower’s interest in the Leases and Rents pursuant to the terms hereof. The assignment of Leases and Rents in this Section 7.01 is an absolute, unconditional and present assignment from Borrower to Lender and not an assignment for security and the existence or exercise of Borrower’s revocable license to collect Rent shall not operate to subordinate this assignment to any subsequent assignment. The exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall not be deemed to make Lender a mortgagee-in-possession. In addition to the provisions of this Article VII, Borrower shall comply with all terms, provisions and conditions of the Assignment.
  73
 
   
Section 7.02. Management of Property. (a) Borrower shall manage the Property or cause the Property to be managed in a manner which is consistent with the Approved Manager Standard.

All Space Leases shall be on a form reasonably acceptable to Lender and shall provide that they are subordinate to this Security Instrument and that the lessees thereunder attorn to Lender. Borrower shall deliver copies of all Leases, amendments, modifications and renewals thereof to Lender. All proposed Leases for the Property shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender, provided, however that Borrower may enter into new leases with unrelated third parties without obtaining the prior consent of Lender provided that: (i) the proposed leases conform with the requirements of this Section 7.02; (ii) the space to be leased pursuant to such proposed lease together with any space leased or to be leased to an Affiliate of the tenant thereunder does not exceed 5,000 square feet; and (iii) the term of the proposed lease inclusive of all extensions and renewals, does not exceed five (5) years or, if all extensions and renewals are at the then prevailing market rates, does not exceed ten (10) years.

Borrower shall not Transfer, nor permit any Transfer, without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent Lender may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Debt immediately due and payable upon a Transfer without Lender’s consent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.01 to the contrary, Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 12.01 for liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses relative to the foregoing which result from Lender’s, and its successors’ or assigns’, willful misconduct or gross negligence or if the condition or event which gave rise to liability first arose or accrued following the date of transfer of title to the Property to Lender in connection with any foreclosure of the Property or acceptance by Lender of a deed-in-lieu thereof. Any amounts payable to Lender by reason of the application of this Section 12.01 shall constitute a part of the Debt secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date the liability, obligation, claim, cost or expense is sustained by Lender, as applicable, until paid. The provisions of this Section 12.01 shall survive the termination of this Security Instrument whether by repayment of the Debt, foreclosure or delivery of a deed in lieu thereof, assignment or otherwise. In case any action, suit or proceeding is brought against any of the Indemnified Parties by reason of any occurrence of the type set forth in (a) through (m) above, Borrower shall, at Borrower’s expense, take all commercially reasonable steps to resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or will cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel at Borrower’s expense for the insurer of the liability or by counsel designated by Borrower (unless reasonably disapproved by Lender promptly after Lender has been notified of such counsel); provided, however, that nothing herein shall compromise the right of Lender (or any other Indemnified Party) to appoint its own counsel at Borrower’s expense for its defense with respect to any action which, in the reasonable opinion of Lender or such other Indemnified Party, as applicable, presents a conflict or potential conflict between Lender or such other Indemnified Party that would make such separate representation advisable. Any Indemnified Party will give Borrower prompt notice after such Indemnified Party obtains actual knowledge of any potential claim by such Indemnified Party for indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Parties shall not settle or compromise any action, proceeding or claim as to which it is indemnified hereunder without notice to Borrower.

If, following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt in whole or in part at any time prior to a foreclosure sale of the Property, and if at the time of such tender prepayment of the principal balance of the Note is not permitted by the Note or this Security Instrument, Borrower shall, in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender a sum equal to (a) all accrued interest on the Note and all other fees, charges and sums due and payable hereunder, (b) all costs and expenses in connection with the enforcement of Lender’s rights hereunder, and (c) a prepayment charge (the “Prepayment Charge”) equal to the greater of (i) 2% of the Principal Amount and (ii) the present value of a series of payments each equal to the Payment Differential (as hereinafter defined) and payable on each Payment Date over the remaining original term of the Note and on the Payment Date occurring two months prior to the Maturity Date, discounted at the Reinvestment Yield (as hereinafter defined) for the number of months remaining as of the date of such prepayment to each such Payment Date and the Payment Date occurring two months prior to the Maturity Date. The term “Payment Differential” shall mean an amount equal to (i) the Interest Rate less the Reinvestment Yield, divided by (ii) twelve (12) and multiplied by (iii) the Principal Amount after application of the constant monthly payment due under the Note on the date of such prepayment, provided that the Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero. The term “Reinvestment Yield” shall mean an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a maturity date closest to the Payment Date occurring two months prior to the Maturity Date, or (ii) the yield on the U.S. Treasury issue (primary issue) with a term equal to the remaining average life of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, with each such yield being based on the bid price for such issue as published in the Wall Street Journal on the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the date of such prepayment set forth in the notice of prepayment (or, if such bid price is not published on that date, the next preceding date on which such bid price is so published) and converted to a monthly compounded nominal yield. In addition to the amounts described above, if, during the first (1st) Loan Year, Borrower shall tender payment of an amount sufficient to satisfy the Debt in whole or in part following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall, in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender a sum equal to three percent (3%) of the Principal Amount. Failure of Lender to require any of these payments shall not constitute a waiver of the right to require the same in the event of any subsequent default or to exercise any other remedy available to Lender hereunder, under any other Loan Document or at law or in equity. In the event that any prepayment charge is due hereunder, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a statement setting forth the amount and determination of the prepayment fee, and, provided that Lender shall have in good faith applied the formula described above, Borrower shall not have the right to challenge the

    PAGE  
calculation or the method of calculation set forth in any such statement in the absence of manifest error, which calculation may be made by Lender on any day during the fifteen (15) day period preceding the date of such prepayment. Lender shall not be obligated or required to have actually reinvested the prepaid principal balance at the Reinvestment Yield or otherwise as a condition to receiving the prepayment charge. If at the time of such tender, prepayment of the principal balance of the Note is permitted, such tender by Borrower shall be deemed to be a voluntary prepayment of the principal balance of the Note, and Borrower shall, in addition to the entire Debt, also pay to Lender the applicable prepayment consideration specified in the Note and this Security Instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to Section 15.01, the Loan may be prepaid at any time in accordance with said Section 15.01 and that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the only prepayment charge due pursuant to this Section 13.03 will be as set forth in Section 15.01.
    89  
 
       
Section 13.04. Possession of the Property. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and the acceleration of the Debt or any portion thereof, Borrower, if an occupant of the Property or any part thereof, upon demand of Lender, shall immediately surrender possession of the Property (or the portion thereof so occupied) to Lender, and if Borrower is permitted to remain in possession, the possession shall be as a month-to-month tenant of Lender and, on demand, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly, in advance, a reasonable rental for the space so occupied and in default thereof Borrower may be dispossessed. The covenants herein contained may be enforced by a receiver of the Property or any part thereof. Nothing in this Section 13.04 shall be deemed to be a waiver of the provisions of this Security Instrument making the Transfer of the Property or any part thereof without Lender’s prior written consent an Event of Default.
    90  
 
       
Section 13.05. Interest After Default. If any amount due under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents is not paid within any applicable notice and grace period after same is due, whether such date is the stated due date, any accelerated due date or any other date or at any other time specified under any of the terms hereof or thereof, then, in such event, Borrower shall pay interest on the amount not so paid from and after the date on which such amount first becomes due at the Default Rate; and such interest shall be due and payable at such rate until the earlier of the cure of all Events of Default or the payment of the entire amount due to Lender, whether or not any action shall have been taken or proceeding commenced to recover the same or to foreclose this Security Instrument. All unpaid and accrued interest shall be secured by this Security Instrument as part of the Debt. Nothing in this Section 13.05 or in any other provision of this Security Instrument shall constitute an extension of the time for payment of the Debt.
    90  
 
       
Section 13.06. Borrower’s Actions After Default. After the happening of any Event of Default and immediately upon the commencement of any action, suit or other legal proceedings by Lender to obtain judgment for the Debt, or of any other nature in aid of the enforcement of the Loan Documents, Borrower will (a) after

receipt of notice of the institution of any such action, waive the issuance and service of process and enter its voluntary appearance in such action, suit or proceeding, and (b) if required by Lender, consent to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Property or any part thereof and of all the earnings, revenues, rents, issues, profits and income thereof.
    91  
 
       
Section 13.07. Control by Lender After Default. Notwithstanding the appointment during the continuance of an Event of Default of any custodian, receiver, liquidator or trustee of Borrower, or of any of its property, or of the Property or any part thereof, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, Lender shall be entitled to obtain possession and control of all property now and hereafter covered by this Security Instrument and the Assignment in accordance with the terms hereof.
    91  
 
       
Section 13.08. Right to Cure Defaults. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender or its agents may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender and its agents are authorized to enter upon the Property or any part thereof for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceedings to protect Lender’s interest in the Property or any part thereof or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 13.08, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be immediately due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents in remedying such Event of Default or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period from the date so demanded to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender or its agents together with interest thereon calculated at the above rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument.
    91  
 
       
Section 13.09. Late Payment Charge. If any portion of the Debt is not paid in full on or before the day on which it is due and payable hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such unpaid portion of the Debt (“Late Charge”) to defray the expense incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment, and such amount shall constitute a part of the Debt.
    92  
 
       
Section 13.10. Recovery of Sums Required to Be Paid. Lender shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due and payable hereunder (after the expiration of any grace period or the giving of any notice herein provided, if any), without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any

other action, for a default or defaults by Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
    92  
 
       
Section 13.11. Marshalling and Other Matters. Borrower hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement, redemption (both equitable and statutory) and homestead laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale hereunder of the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Borrower hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of this Security Instrument on behalf of Borrower, whether equitable or statutory and on behalf of each and every Person acquiring any interest in or title to the Property or any part thereof subsequent to the date of this Security Instrument and on behalf of all Persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
    92  
 
Section 13.12. Tax Reduction Proceedings. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall be deemed to have appointed Lender as its attorney-in-fact to seek a reduction or reductions in the assessed valuation of the Property for real property tax purposes or for any other purpose and to prosecute any action or proceeding in connection therewith. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable for so long as any part of the Debt remains unpaid and any Event of Default shall be continuing.

    101  
 
       
Section 18.14. Security Agreement. (a) (i) This Security Instrument is both a real property mortgage, deed to secure debt or deed of trust, as applicable, and a “security agreement” within the meaning of the UCC. The Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in the Property. This Security Instrument is filed as a fixture filing and covers goods which are or are to become fixtures on the Property. Borrower by executing and delivering this Security Instrument has granted to Lender, as security for the Debt, a security interest in the Property to the full extent that the Property may be subject to the UCC (said portion of the Property so subject to the UCC being called in this Section 18.14 the “Collateral”). If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the UCC, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting its interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral. Any disposition pursuant to the UCC of so much of the Collateral as may constitute personal property shall be considered commercially reasonable if made pursuant to a public sale which is advertised at least twice in a newspaper in which sheriff’s sales are advertised in the county where the Premises is located. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Collateral given to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such action, shall constitute reasonable notice to Borrower. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper. It is not necessary that the Collateral be present at any disposition thereof. Lender shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition.
    101  
 
       
Section 18.15. Actions and Proceedings. Lender has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property in its own name or, if required by Legal Requirements or, if in Lender’s reasonable judgment, it is necessary, in the name and on behalf of Borrower, which Lender

    102  
 
       
Section 18.16. Usury Laws. This Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition, and it is the expressed intent of the parties, that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, such rate of interest shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note. No application to the principal balance of the Note pursuant to this Section 18.16 shall give rise to any requirement to pay any prepayment fee or charge of any kind due hereunder, if any.
    102  
 
       
Section 18.17. Remedies of Borrower. In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Lender has acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under the Note, this Security Instrument or the Loan Documents, it has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Lender shall not be liable for any monetary damages, and Borrower’s remedies shall be limited to injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Section 18.18. Offsets, Counterclaims and Defenses. Any assignee of this Security Instrument, the Assignment and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims or defenses which are unrelated to the Note, the Assignment or this Security Instrument which Borrower may otherwise have against any assignor of this Security Instrument, the Assignment and the Note and no such unrelated counterclaim or defense shall be interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Security Instrument, the Assignment or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such unrelated offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Borrower.
    103  
 
       
Section 18.19. No Merger. If Borrower’s and Lender’s estates become the same including, without limitation, upon the delivery of a deed by Borrower in lieu of a foreclosure sale, or upon a purchase of the Property by Lender in a foreclosure sale, this Security Instrument and the lien created hereby shall not be destroyed or terminated by the application of the doctrine of merger and in such event Lender shall continue to have and enjoy all of the rights and privileges of Lender as to the separate estates; and, as a consequence thereof, upon the foreclosure of the lien

created by this Security Instrument, any Leases or subleases then existing and created by Borrower shall not be destroyed or terminated by application of the law of merger or as a result of such foreclosure unless Lender or any purchaser at any such foreclosure sale shall so elect.

Section 18.20. Restoration of Rights. In case Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Security Instrument by foreclosure sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely, then, in every such case, Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Property subject to the lien hereof.
    103

Section 18.22. Advances. This Security Instrument shall cover any and all advances made pursuant to the Loan Documents, rearrangements and renewals of the Debt and all extensions in the time of payment thereof, even though such advances, extensions or renewals be evidenced by new promissory notes or other instruments hereafter executed and irrespective of whether filed or recorded. Likewise, the execution of this Security Instrument shall not impair or affect any other security which may be given to secure the payment of the Debt, and all such additional security shall be considered as cumulative. The taking of additional security, execution of partial releases of the security, or any extension of time of payment of the Debt shall not diminish the force, effect or lien of this Security Instrument and shall not affect or impair the liability of Borrower and shall not affect or impair the liability of any maker, surety, or endorser for the payment of the Debt.
    104  
 
       
Section 18.23. Application of Default Rate Not a Waiver. Application of the Default Rate shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or any rights or remedies of Lender under this Security Instrument, any other Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements, or a consent to any extension of time for the payment or performance of any obligation with respect to which the Default Rate may be invoked.
    104

Except as set forth to the contrary in the Loan Documents, all sums payable by Borrower hereunder shall be paid without notice or demand, counterclaim, set-off, deduction or defense and without abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction, and the obligations and liabilities of Borrower hereunder shall in no way be released, discharged, or otherwise affected (except as expressly provided herein) by reason of: (a) any damage to or destruction of or any Taking of the Property or any portion thereof ; (b) any restriction or prevention of or interference with any use of the Property or any portion thereof; (c) any title defect or encumbrance or any eviction from the Premises or any portion thereof by title paramount or otherwise; (d) any bankruptcy proceeding relating to Borrower, any General Partner, or any guarantor or indemnitor, or any action taken with respect to this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document by any trustee or receiver of Borrower or any such General Partner, guarantor or indemnitor, or by any court, in any such proceeding; (e) any claim which Borrower has or might have against Lender; (f) any default or failure on the part of Lender to perform or comply with any of the terms hereof or of any other agreement with Borrower; or (g) any other occurrence whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, whether or not Borrower shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing.

Section 18.31. Securitization Financials. Borrower covenants and agrees that, upon Lender’s written request therefor in connection with a Securitization, Borrower shall, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, promptly deliver (a) audited financial statements and related documentation prepared by an Independent certified public accountant that satisfy securities laws and requirements for use in a public registration statement (which may include up to three (3) years of historical audited financial statements) and (b) if, at the time one or more Disclosure Documents are being prepared in connection with a Securitization, Lender expects that Borrower alone or Borrower and one or more of its Affiliates collectively, or the Property alone or the Property and any other parcel(s) of real property, together with improvements thereon and personal property related thereto, that is “related”, within the meaning of the definition of Significant Obligor, to the Property (a “Related Property”) collectively, will be a Significant Obligor, Borrower shall furnish to Lender upon request (i) the selected financial data or, if applicable, net operating income, required under Item 1112(b)(1) of Regulation AB and meeting the requirements thereof, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan, together with any loans made to an Affiliate of Borrower or secured by a Related Property that is included in a Securitization with the Loan (a “Related Loan”), as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed ten percent (10%) (but less than twenty percent (20%)) of the aggregate principal amount of all mortgage loans included or expected to be included, as applicable, in the Securitization or (ii) the financial statements required under Item 1112(b)(2) of Regulation AB and meeting the requirements thereof, if Lender expects that the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization may, or if the principal amount of the Loan together with any Related Loans as of the cut-off date for such Securitization and at any time during which the Loan and any Related Loans are included in a Securitization does, equal or exceed twenty percent (20%) of the

News Release
Pebblebrook Hotel Trust Acquires the Argonaut Hotel
      Bethesda, MD, February 16, 2011 — Pebblebrook Hotel Trust (NYSE: PEB) (the “Company”) today announced that it has acquired the Argonaut Hotel for $84.0 million. The 252-room, upper-upscale, full-service, boutique-style hotel is located in San Francisco, California, in the heart of Fisherman’s Wharf. The property will continue to be managed by Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants (“Kimpton”). The transaction includes the assumption of a $42.0 million secured loan, with the balance of the purchase price funded by the Company with available cash.
     “We are pleased to acquire such a distinctive hotel in one of the most dynamic areas of San Francisco,” said Jon Bortz, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pebblebrook Hotel Trust. “The hotel is situated in an excellent location in Fisherman’s Wharf and is in close proximity to the area’s major attractions. The hotel is a spectacular historic landmark that is surrounded by a wealth of entertainment and leisure activities. Moreover, the Argonaut is the market leader in the internationally known Fisherman’s Wharf market. The strong leisure and group demand in this market, combined with extremely high barriers to entry, makes the Argonaut a very compelling addition to our growing portfolio.”
     The Argonaut Hotel is located in the popular Fisherman’s Wharf area of San Francisco, California, within the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park and just blocks from numerous fine dining, entertainment and shopping establishments. Fisherman’s Wharf is an historic part of San Francisco that has long been known for its vibrant, marine-oriented atmosphere and is home to the Aquarium by the Bay, Anchorage Square, Ghirardelli Square and PIER 39, a 110-shop, two-story, festival marketplace. The area is also the main departure point for Alcatraz Island, a prime tourist attraction. San Francisco has consistently been featured as a top tourist destination in North America for both domestic and international travelers and boasts an exceptional array of natural attractions. In addition to the abundant and diverse collection of leisure activities, the city’s location on the west coast makes it a natural gateway to travelers from Asia.
     The hotel was originally constructed in 1907 as the Haslett Warehouse, before its conversion to a hotel in 2003. The Argonaut Hotel is a boutique-style property located directly across from San Francisco Bay with stunning views of Alcatraz Island, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Transamerica Pyramid. The property consists of 252 well-appointed guestrooms, with decor that celebrates the nautical history of the city’s waterfront. The property highlights the historic features of the property, including exposed red brick walls, high ceilings and original redwood columns and beams. The hotel features over 8,000 square feet of meeting space, including the 4,200 square-foot Golden Gate Ballroom and the 1,800 square-foot Maritime Room. The property also features the Blue Mermaid Chowder House, a 170-seat, three-meal-a-day restaurant that serves fresh seafood fare and is locally known for its excellent chowder. Additionally, the hotel is home to the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Visitors Center, along with several retail outlets including Starbucks, Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Ice Cream, Blazing Saddles Bike Rentals and Tours, and the Winery Collective Tasting Room.
     In 2010, the Argonaut Hotel operated at 87% occupancy, with an average daily rate of $185. During the next 12 months, the Company currently forecasts that the hotel will generate earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of approximately $5.1 to $5.6 million and net operating income after capital reserves of approximately $4.2 to $4.7 million.

 


 

     The Company will own a leasehold interest in the property through a long-term ground lease with the Department of the Interior National Park Service by way of the United States of America. There are currently 49 years remaining on the long-term ground lease, which expires in 2059. The $42.0 million secured loan that is being assumed in connection with the acquisition is a non-recourse, interest-only loan, subject to a fixed annual interest rate of 5.67%. The loan matures in March 2012.
     The hotel will continue to be managed by Kimpton, which has managed the property since 2003. In addition to the Argonaut Hotel, Kimpton also manages Pebblebrook’s 416-room Sir Francis Drake in downtown San Francisco, California, 183-room Monaco Washington DC in downtown Washington, DC and 140-room The Grand Hotel Minneapolis in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota.
     “We are excited to expand our very successful relationship with Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants,” continued Mr. Bortz. “They are extremely experienced with the San Francisco market and we believe they will continue to drive market-leading performance at the Argonaut Hotel.”
     The Company expects to incur approximately $1.4 million of costs related to the acquisition of this hotel that will be expensed as incurred.
     The Argonaut Hotel marks the ninth acquisition for the Company since completing its initial public offering in December 2009.

In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the hotel’s results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP.
     The Company has presented forecasted hotel EBITDA and forecasted hotel net operating income after capital reserves, because it believes these measures provide investors and analysts with an understanding of the hotel-level operating performance. These non-GAAP measures do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties, nor are they indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions.
     The Company’s presentation of the hotel’s forecasted EBITDA and forecasted net operating income after capital reserves should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the hotel’s financial performance. The table above is a reconciliation of the hotel’s forecasted EBITDA and net operating income after capital reserves calculations to net income in accordance with GAAP.
